Saudi Capital Market : Development and Challenges

[This book] provides...an assessment of the Saudi economy and the development of its capital market. A thriving capital market, one that not only brings investment funds into a country but also distributes profits in a transparent matter, is essential for any economy, especially a rapidly developing one such as Saudi Arabia. Already a key player on the world stage, the Kingdom is going through major planned economic transformation and diversification. In particular, a robust and transparent capital market, with a high level of integrity and sound enforcement, is well on the way to fruition. This book is the first in English to analyze and evaluate the roles of economic planning and a capital market in Saudi Arabia's economic modernization. In the process of examining the level of transparency and fairness in Saudi Arabia's capital market, the author provides detailed information and analysis of such issues and topics as the following: market disclosure rules; insider trading laws; gaps in enforcement; dispute resolution; role of securities agencies; Saudi Arabia's position in international organizations; and repercussions of the 2006 Saudi stock market collapse.--
