Camco Invest: $236.6B Gulf Debt Due by 2030
Camco Invest reports expect Gulf governments to face a high level of sovereign debt maturities over the next five years, totaling approximately $236.6 billion between 2026 and 2030, with bond and sukuk maturities continuing to rise mainly during this period. Data shows that Saudi Arabia will have the largest share of these maturities, amounting to $167.4 billion, followed by the UAE and Qatar, while Oman will have the lowest with $22.3 billion in maturities. The increase in these obligations is largely due to a high volume of short-term issuances, as corporate bond issuances are projected to surpass government bonds, with $171.4 billion compared to $137 billion. Additionally, bond and sukuk issuances have increased by 14.3% in the first half of this year, maintaining elevated levels to support financing amid declining oil revenues.
