Institutional Investor (April 26)

2017/ 04/ 27 by jd in Global News

The Saudi Stock Exchange, known as the Tadawul, has “sped up its transaction cycle and introduced new trade options in a bid at international capital.” It has adopted the T+2 settlements now common in Europe. (The U.S. still takes three days to settle transactions, but is scheduled to adopt T+2 this September). Tadawul also “introduced securities borrowing and lending as well as covered short selling.” Currently ranked #23, the Tadawul hopes moves like these and the launch of a REIT market will help it attract more investment.
