New regulations for offshore financial markets
The Capital Market Authority has announced a new draft regulation aimed at establishing strict controls for dealings in financial markets outside the kingdom. The goal is to develop the legislative environment and improve the efficiency of international investment transactions. The project includes oversight tools for licensed financial institutions and requires a financial standing review for all foreign transactions conducted in markets equivalent to the local market. It also eliminates duplicate checks on subsequent operations unless there are significant changes. Additionally, the regulation emphasizes protective measures such as depositing a margin covering at least 50% of the transaction value, and it prohibits high leverage trading and stock trades with accumulated losses. Participants are invited to submit their feedback on the draft by October 27, 2026, with the new controls set to take effect starting November 1, 2026.
