Saudi stocks see 6bn riyals in foreign inflow
The Saudi financial market (Tadawul) succeeded in attracting foreign investments worth 6 billion riyals (approximately $1.6 billion) during the second quarter of 2026, despite declines in other Gulf equities amid geopolitical unrest, fluctuations in oil prices, and global interest rate volatility. Structural and regulatory reforms, including opening the market to non-resident foreign investors since February 2026, led to a 75.4% increase in net foreign investments in the kingdom during the first half of 2026, reaching 12.7 billion riyals. Saudi Arabia was the only market in the region to record positive investment inflows, while stock exchanges in Dubai, Kuwait, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi registered net outflows. Although Gulf trading volumes declined by 21.7%, the total value of trades exceeded $157.7 billion, with more than half of the liquidity concentrated in the Saudi market.
