Refinitiv data showed that the Kuwaiti dinar declined against the US dollar in the futures market, ahead of the official announcement of the death of the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah.

The Emir of Kuwait was undergoing treatment in the United States, to complete medical treatment after surgery for an unspecified case he underwent in Kuwait.

On July 18, Kuwait announced the transfer of some of the powers of the Emir of the country to his crown prince, Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah (83 years), after the prince was hospitalized.

Al-Sabah, in 2019, made a six-week medical trip in the United States, during which he canceled a meeting with the US President, Donald Trump, due to his health.

The Emir has ruled Kuwait since January 2006. He has pressed for the use of diplomacy to solve regional issues, such as the ongoing boycott of Qatar by four Arab countries, and has hosted major conferences to provide grants for conflict-torn countries such as Iraq and Syria.
