Riyadh – Mubasher: The Saudi Exchange (Tadawul) has announced the publication of draft amendments to its Exchange Rules for public consultation, focusing on the development of the Sukuk and debt markets in the Kingdom.
The proposed changes aim to enhance the regulatory framework for securitization and asset-backed debt instruments, fostering a more efficient and transparent environment for a wide range of investors, according to an official statement.
The draft amendments are part of a strategic initiative to strengthen and develop the Kingdom’s Sukuk and debt market. By enhancing the regulatory framework for securitization activities, Tadawul intends to establish a more flexible and efficient system that contributes to the expansion of the investor base.
This effort is designed to improve market efficiency and increase the attractiveness of the exchange across various investor segments, providing a more robust structure for debt-related financial activities.
A central element of the proposed amendments involves the refinement of regulatory requirements and disclosure obligations for asset-backed debt instruments. These enhancements are specifically designed to improve the clarity of information available to investors.
By strengthening disclosure standards, Tadawul aims to enhance transparency and market efficiency, ensuring that all market participants have access to clear and comprehensive data regarding these instruments. This focus on transparency is intended to bolster investor confidence and improve the overall functioning of the debt market.
In accordance with its commitment to stakeholder engagement, the Tadawul is inviting all concerned and interested parties to participate in the regulatory process. The public consultation allows market participants to share their views and provide feedback on the draft amendments.
The exchange has stated that all opinions and observations submitted during this period will be carefully considered and assessed as part of the process for issuing the final versions of the regulatory documents.
This inclusive approach ensures that the views of the broader financial community are integrated into the development of the Exchange Rules.
The consultation period is currently active, with the Saudi Exchange Company accepting feedback until 14 June 2026.
Stakeholders and interested parties are encouraged to submit their observations through the designated email address: Public.Consultation@tadawulgroup.sa.
