in scmp.com : Saudi Arabia’s capital market is very attractive in the eyes of global investors, and the kingdom’s authorities are pushing for more regulation to enhance the market’s accessibility and stability, with the aim of boosting confidence and to attract further international capital inflows, said panellists at the Saudi Capital Market Forum in Riyadh on Tuesday. “We’re trying to adopt the concept of enabling regulations instead of deregulations, and this is one of the things that you might find different in the Saudi development endeavour,” said Abdullah Binghannam, the deputy of financing and investment at Saudi financial regulator Capital Market Authority (CMA).
