UBS economist Matthias Holzhey was skeptical of direct rent manipulation, calling it \u201cthe way to disaster,\u201d arguing it could deter long-term investment and slow new construction. The challenge is compounded by tight liquidity and a widening budget deficit, though it may create openings for private credit funds, private equity, and family offices to step in.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/real-estate\/\">Real Estate<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/riyadh\/\">Riyadh<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/tag\/saudi-in-the-news\/\">SAUDI IN THE NEWS<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"101358\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"101358\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">7<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">ALSO ON OUR RADAR<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2025\/10\/12\/alsa-to-launch-shuttle-park-and-ride-services-for-qiddiya\/\">\r\n                            Mobico Group\u2019s Alsa secures eight-year contract for Qiddiya transport services                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/ksa\/2025\/10\/12\/alsa-to-launch-shuttle-park-and-ride-services-for-qiddiya\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

Core markets \u2014 the GCC, Malaysia, Indonesia, Turkey, and Pakistan \u2014 issued about USD 80 bn in the quarter, up 22% q-o-q and 89% y-o-y.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>(** Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links<\/strong> to our background and outside sources.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What\u2019s driving the boom:<\/strong> Lower funding costs and ample GCC liquidity offset tighter shariah compliance rules and regional tensions. The Fed\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/uae\/en\/news\/story\/f4fa3768-a450-4162-a3d6-e6bdaa1bfbb6\/fed-cuts-rates-for-the-first-time-this-year,-resuming-widely-anticipated-easing-cycle\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">September rate cut to 4.25%<\/a> added momentum, while conventional bond issuance in the same markets fell 17.6% q-o-q. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Sukuk now account for 35% of total debt issuance in core markets<\/strong>, up from 27.5% a year earlier. Outstanding sukuk rose 15.5% y-o-y to USD 1 tn by end-3Q, with 28% denominated in USD. ESG-linked sukuk represented 13% of USD-denominated issues, alongside a rising share of subordinated instruments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Regional leaders: <\/strong>Malaysia accounts for the largest share of outstanding sukuk issuances with 34%, closely followed by Saudi Arabia with 30%. Outside of the GCC, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Turkey together accounted for 64% of global issuance during the quarter. In the GCC, sukuk now make up 40% of outstanding debt instruments compared to 16% in emerging markets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Sukuk issuance is on track to surpass 2024 levels<\/strong>, with 2026 prospects described as \u201cpromising.\u201d Growth will be supported by refinancing needs, diversification goals, and Islamic-finance reforms. The agency\u2019s base case assumes oil at USD 70 per barrel this year and USD 65 in 2026, though it added that price shocks and new shariah requirements could pose downside risks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>REMEMBER- <\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/uae\/en\/news\/story\/d8ae4dca-8b35-4f48-9c53-285d18ce6131\/proposed-sukuk-reforms-may-risk-fracturing-usd-1-tn-islamic-debt-market\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Proposed reforms<\/a> to sukuk aim to make them less like conventional interest-bearing debt and more like an asset-backed structure, where sukuk holders would gain full ownership of the underlying assets and expose them to additional risks like defaults. It could also increase costs and red tape for issuers through additional asset transfer and legal documentation. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Credit quality stays strong: <\/strong>The market remains resilient, with no defaults or downgrades among Fitch-rated sukuk in 3Q. About 80% of issues are investment grade, and 88% of issuers carry a stable outlook.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Structural shifts: <\/strong>Qatar Central Bank expanded its Primary Dealer Framework to include ijara sukuk, while Saudi Arabia\u2019s potential inclusion in JPMorgan\u2019s EM bond index could boost SAR-denominated demand. The UAE\u2019s Higher Shariah Authority also issued new guidance on asset-sale rights, prompting issuers to revise documentation. Fitch said the change does not make unsecured sukuk equivalent to secured debt but could affect future rating treatment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\"> ALSO FROM PLANET FINANCE-<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Crypt<\/strong><strong>ocurrencies got a hit on Friday after days of Bitcoin reaching its highest peak<\/strong>, as Bitcoin dropped below the USD 113k level, pushed down by US President Donald Trump's announcement he would impose an additional 100% tariff on China and new export limitation on software, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2025-10-10\/crypto-sees-more-than-3-billion-in-liquidations-in-past-hour?srnd=homepage-middle-east\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Bloomberg<\/a> reported yesterday.
