Kuwait has a well developed banking system. The [[Kuwait Stock Exchange]] is the second-largest [[stock exchange]] in the Arab world. The [[National Bank of Kuwait]] is the largest bank in the country and one of the largest in the Arab world. Other prominent financial institutions based in Kuwait include the [[Gulf Bank of Kuwait]] and [[Burgan Bank]], which is named after the largest oilfield in the country.
Kuwait was the pioneer in the Middle East in [[Diversification (finance)|diversifying]] its earnings away from oil exports.

Kuwait has been a major source of foreign economic assistance to other states through the [[Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development]], an autonomous state institution created in 1961 on the pattern of Western and international development agencies. Over the years aid was annually provided to Egypt, Syria, and Jordan, as well as the Palestine Liberation Organization. In 1974, the fund's lending mandate was expanded to include all developing countries in the world. During the Iran-Iraq war, significant Kuwaiti aid was given to the Iraqis. The Kuwait Fund issued loans and technical assistance grants totaling over $520 million during its fiscal year ending 30 June 2000.
