JEDDAH: The balance of capital markets, investor confidence, and Saudi Arabia’s market performance took center stage at the ninth Future Investment Initiative conference.

Speaking during the event, Khalid Al-Hussan, CEO of the Saudi Tadawul Group, said the group maintains a high level of professionalism and transparency as an institutional force in the Kingdom’s market, supported by both local and international investors and increased capital inflows, according to the Saudi Press Agency.

He highlighted the vast opportunities in Saudi capital markets, noting that the Kingdom hosts two markets with more than 380 listed companies, multi-billion-dollar investments, and several active financing platforms — placing Saudi Arabia among the world’s top 10 financial markets.

“Regarding the regulatory environment, Al-Hussan said it continues to evolve under Vision 2030, with efforts to broaden access to Saudi markets, deepen liquidity, and provide diverse investment alternatives,” SPA reported

The Tadawul CEO emphasized that expanding market accessibility remains a key pillar, adding that regulations are developing in response to growing demand and new capital inflows.
