Kuwait on Monday projected a 4.7 percent rise in spending to 22.5 billion dinars ($74.15 billion) as part of its state budget for the year ending on March 31, 2020, as the major oil producer seeks to spur economic growth.

The Kuwaiti Finance Minister Nayef al-Hajraf said he expected the average oil price to range between $55 to $65 per barrel, higher than the projected $50 a barrel in its last budget.

Brent crude oil futures traded around $63 on Monday.
