This year\u2019s edition of EFG Hermes\u2019 conference, which is running under the theme \u201cInvesting Right in MENA,\u201d zoned in on the growth story in Saudi Arabia, including the country\u2019s booming equity and debt capital markets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cA story of transformation, innovation, and confidence.\u201d<\/strong> That\u2019s how Capital Market Authority (CMA) Board Commissioner Abdulaziz Abdulmohsen bin Hassan described Saudi\u2019s capital markets journey over the past decade. Bin Hassan pointed out that, along with strong growth in several sectors of the economy including tourism, technology, and renewable energy, Saudi Arabia\u2019s capital markets have also developed to foster a \u201cthriving\u201d environment for IPOs. \u201cToday, Saudi Arabia\u2019s capital market is the largest in MENA with a market cap exceeding USD 2.7 tn, representing 62% of the MENA region\u2019s capitalization. But what sets us apart is not size \u2014 it\u2019s our scale, liquidity, governance, and ambition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The IPO market speaks for itself:<\/strong> Saudi Arabia now sees an average of 40-50 IPOs each year, rising dramatically from an annual average of five to six debuts five years ago, CMA Deputy of Market Institution Raed Al Humaid said in a panel on the Kingdom\u2019s growth story. This volume has positioned Saudi Arabia\u2019s capital markets among the \u201ctop 10 [globally] when it comes to the number of IPOs,\u201d supported by the introduction of key reforms such as streamlined listing regulations, Al Humaid said. Also expected to support the market\u2019s growth is forthcoming SPAC regulations, which Al Humaid notes will provide \u201cadditional flexibility for issuances to go into the market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The country\u2019s debt markets are also booming, doubling in value in five years to reach <\/strong><strong>SAR 864 bn<\/strong>, compared to SAR 348 bn in 2019, according to Al Humaid. DCM fundraising \u2014 which currently stands at SAR 131 bn \u2014 has now surpassed the value of IPO equity fundraising, Al Humaid said. Saudi has already seen two public debt offerings this year, with another two expected by the end of 2025, Saudi Exchange CEO Mohammed Al Rumaih said. Next year, the exchange expects the number of debt offerings to hit the double digits, according to Al Rumaih. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What\u2019s next?<\/strong> \u201cOur next chapter is about deepening global connectivity,\u201d bin Hassan said. \u201cThe CMA is introducing offshore business security licensing, enabling global institutions to serve their clients and key funds and sovereigns from Riyadh,\u201d bin Hassan said, noting that this direction will help Riyadh take shape as \u201ca preferred global capital hub\u201d over the next few years. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>ALSO- Keep an eye on the derivatives market<\/strong>, which the Saudi Exchange and CMA are working on revamping, after recently-launched futures and options trading \u201cdid not reach our targets,\u201d Al Rumaih said.
