The MENA market awards recognize funds with outstanding performance based on Lipper’s rigorous assessment process. Kamco Investment Fund was named the MENA Markets and MENA Markets Domestic LSEG Lipper Fund Awards Kuwait 2025 Winner, “Best Equity Fund Over 3 Years”, “Best Equity Fund Over 5 Years”, and “Best Equity Fund Over 10 Years”.
Commenting on the awards, Salah Al Wuhaib, Senior Executive Director of Equity and Fixed Income at Kamco Invest, said, “We are proud to once again be acknowledged for the periodic performance of our Kamco Investment Fund, one of Kamco Invest’s flagship funds in Kuwait, at the LSEG Lipper Fund Awards. This recognition reflects the strength of the investment philosophy and active fund management approach that we implement when managing our funds. We will continue to uphold our disciplined investment strategy to deliver sustainable long-term value for our clients.”
Mahmoud Tifouni, Director – Equity and Fixed Income, said, “This recognition by the LSEG Lipper Fund Awards highlights the fund’s performance over the short-, medium-, and long-term periods. Our investment framework has proven resilient through favorable market cycles and periods of uncertainty. The Kamco Investment Fund, along with our other Kuwaiti funds, continue to deliver strong performances, ranking amongst the top performing conventional and Islamic funds in Kuwait.”
Otto Christian Kober, Head of Lipper Research, LSEG Data & Analytics, said, “The 2025 LSEG Lipper Fund Awards are recognizing perhaps the most dramatic three-year period that the markets have seen in decades. Fund managers being recognized have steered their investors through a pandemic, a mild recession, rising geopolitical risks, skyrocketing inflation and dramatic central bank intervention.
He added, “Whether you’ve been investing for just the past 15 years and have seen only the easy money environment following the Financial Crisis – or you’ve been an investor for 50 years and feel as if you’ve seen it all, there is no way to have foreseen the range of fundamental and non-financial factors that impacted the markets these past few years.”
Kober concluded, “We applaud the 2025 LSEG Lipper Fund Award winners such as Kamco Invest for delivering outperformance and the accompanying comfort of consistency to investors’ portfolios through a cross-current of global market disruptions.”
Al Wuhaib concluded by congratulating the Asset Management Team for their effort and diligent investment approach which have resulted in Kamco Invest’s Kuwait Equity Funds being ranked amongst the top performing funds in 2024 and the first quarter of 2025.
