RIYADH: Non-Saudi companies are expected to soon be able to obtain approval for dual listing on the Saudi market, according to Tadawul’s CEO.
Companies need finance to expand in particular industries, Mohammed Al-Rumaih told Argaam, noting that the capital market aims to be the first partner to provide finance for expansions.
He added that Tadawul worked on the market maker system, aiming at enhancing market efficiency and effectiveness through boosting liquidity, along with financial institutions and the Capital Market regulator.
Tadawul Group witnessed its 39th listing of the year on Oct. 25, with 18 listing requests approved by the CMA through 2022, Mohammed al-Rumaih told Al Arabiya.
This number surpasses the 2021 figure, which saw 21 listings, as well as the number witnessed in 2020, when the market recorded only eight, according to the CEO.
