Improving liquidity is one of the key components in our overall market development strategy and the LP regime is an important element in helping us to achieve this goal.

“Our overall objectives continue to be to develop and support the Exchange for the benefit of all of our members and the investment community as a whole. We continue to work with the regulator and other agencies to increase the issuer base and to introduce new products and services. We continue to work on improving market access with the aim of increasing our investor base. We also continue to seek out ways to improve liquidity across the board for the benefit of all,” Al-Mansoori stated.
