The Saudi stock market, known as Tadawul (Saudi Exchange), is the largest in the Middle East. It plays a vital role in the Kingdom’s economic diversification under Vision 2030. Key indices include the Tadawul All Share Index (TASI), which tracks the performance of listed companies. Major sectors include banking, petrochemicals, and healthcare.
Tadawul has grown significantly, attracting foreign investors after its 2019 inclusion in global indices like MSCI and FTSE Russell. Recent reforms, such as IPO listings (e.g., Aramco) and fintech expansion, have boosted liquidity. However, oil price volatility and geopolitical factors influence market trends.
Regulated by the CMA (Capital Market Authority), Tadawul aims to enhance transparency and investor confidence, supporting Saudi Arabia’s shift toward a diversified, non-oil economy.
