The announcement coincided with the implementation of the unified regulation for cross-border registration of investment funds among Gulf Cooperation Council countries, which came into effect in 2025, according to the Capital Market Authority. The regulation outlines requirements for registering and marketing investment funds across GCC countries and introduces a dedicated regulatory guide. It aims to clarify procedures for handling both local and Gulf-based funds, enhance financial market services, and reduce regulatory challenges. Additionally, the framework seeks to support mechanisms that attract international investments to the Saudi financial market and boost foreign ownership in investment funds. The broader goal is to improve liquidity in regional financial markets, enhance the competitiveness of GCC economies, and foster integration by unifying the policies and systems governing domestic, regional, and foreign investment activities. The regulation also aims to ensure a transparent and stable investment environment. Under the framework, the legislative committee in each host country will have the authority to set standards for approving fund registrations and supervising funds within its jurisdiction, including overseeing the appointed agent and their interactions with investors. Cross-border registration must be conducted through the capital market authorities of both the fund's country of origin and the host country. The regulation allows investment funds established in any GCC member state to be promoted in other countries applying the framework. It also outlines the process for offering Saudi funds in Gulf markets, with a focus on aligning with regulatory review mechanisms and cross-border registration requirements to ensure full compliance with approved guidelines.
