The two-year 2025-26 budget plans BD8.9bn spending against BD6.4bn revenue, a ~BD2.5bn deficit, with interest close to a quarter of spending. The 2026 Iran conflict and Hormuz disruption pushed Moody's outlook to negative, while the government pursues fiscal reforms including higher fuel, power and water tariffs.
