French Falcon Center sells all its falcons within 5 days at International Falcon Breeders Auction
The auction, organized by the Saudi Falcons Club in Malham, north of Riyadh, runs until Aug. 25, with the participation of leading international and local farms.
Hertel, owner of Phil Falcons Center, said that this year's sales were far better than in previous years. He said that this year he focused on the quality of the falcons rather than quantity, which was reflected in both demand and results.
'I regularly participate in the auction, and each year we see significant improvements in organization and increased participation,' Hertel said. 'This is a testament to the dedicated efforts of the Saudi Falcons Club to enhance this heritage and encourage investment in the falconry sector.'
The event runs for 21 days and brings together top falcon breeds from around the world in the largest event of its kind globally.

CMA seeks public input on public offering of investment funds
Logo of Capital Market Authority (CMA) The Capital Market Authority (CMA) invited all interested parties to submit their views on enabling investors in the Saudi Exchange to invest in investment funds, which were previously offered privately through the regulatory framework for investment funds. The consultation period is 30 days, ending on September 10, 2025. The proposed draft aims to develop the regulatory framework for investment funds and provide new products in Tadawul by allowing investment funds established for engaging in direct and indirect financing activities to offer their units in a public offering. This will help provide an additional financing channel that supports economic growth and meets its financing needs, and will enable the growth of the asset management industry, increase the total assets under management, and diversify the investment assets available to all investors in Tadawul, the regulator said, in a statement. It indicated that the key elements of the proposed draft include providing additional structures for finance investment funds, by publicly offering and listing them on the Main Market (TASI) and the Nomu-Parallel Market, as their offering is currently limited to private placements.
