One of the key markets in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) that continues to lead from the front is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). As the largest country in the Middle East and the 18th largest economy in the world, the progress KSA continues to make is underpinned by its Vision 2030 that envisions developing the country as an investment powerhouse and hub that ultimately connects Asia, Europe, and Africa. Given Saudi Arabia’s significance to the regional economy, our team of experts have prepared a range of pertinent articles that provide insights into new laws, regulations, and the legal landscape in the Kingdom.
This edition will provide you with an up-to-date guide on matters such as; the framework issued by the Saudi Central Bank on IT governance, the anti-corruption landscape under Vision 2030; we also provide practical tips for dispute avoidance. This is only a snapshot; there are many more articles within the KSA focus section for you to read, which we hope you will find valuable and enjoyable.
Read the editionI am pleased to announce that Mohamed Khodeir, a partner in our Corporate Commercial team, has assumed the role of acting head of our equity capital markets team.
Many of you will know Mohamed, who was a partner in our equity capital markets practice several years ago before heading our office in Qatar and then relocating to Egypt to establish our office in Cairo.
Mohamed recently re-joined the firm after acting as the CEO of the General Authority for Investment and Free Zones in Egypt. Mohamed’s profile can be viewed here for your information.
Mohamed has been appointed to this position as Ahmed Ibrahim will be leaving the firm. Please direct any communications and requests for support relating to equity capital markets or securities market issues to Mohamed – m.khodeir@tamimi.com.
I am very much looking forward to building on the success of our equity capital markets practice across the Middle East, particularly at a time where markets in the region are becoming increasingly active.
