Saudi derivatives trading to grow 30% in a year
The article focused on the reforms launched by the Saudi Financial Market "Tadawul" and "Maqasa" in August 2026 to improve the financial derivatives market. These reforms included market restructuring, fee reductions, one-year exemptions, and updates to pricing and margin mechanisms, all aimed at enhancing liquidity, market efficiency, and providing more advanced hedging tools. Experts anticipate that these measures will lead to a 20-30% increase in trading volume in the coming year, while also boosting the market's attractiveness to both local and foreign investors. Additionally, they are expected to reduce market volatility through the use of hedging instruments and develop investors’ ability to manage risks more flexibly. The importance of a secure infrastructure, such as the role of "Maqasa" as a central counterparty, is highlighted in strengthening confidence and supporting sustainable expansion in the Saudi derivatives market.
