Saudi Stock Market August 2014
September 4, 2014--On July 22, 2014, the Saudi Arabian government approved the opening of its stock market, the Tadawul All Shares Index (TASI), to direct foreign investment. This decision was met with high approval from investors and economic experts throughout the Kingdom. On the day of the announcement, the Saudi market index breached the 10,000 point mark for the first time in six years, and closed the day at 10,025.14 points after jumping up over 275.12 points from when the day began.
Currently estimated at a capitalization of $530 billion, the Saudi stock market is the largest in the Arab world. This measure has been one of the most highly anticipated economic reforms in the Kingdom's recent history, and is set to take place in early 2015. The shift is predicted to dramatically increase the flow of foreign capital into the Kingdom, and carries the potential to instigate an inflow of up to $50 billion into the country.
