The CMA: Compensation for Investors Affected by Violations Committed in the Shares of 'Watani Iron Steel Co.'

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, July 25 (Bernama) -- The Capital Market Authority (CMA) announces the completion of compensation for investors affected by the violations committed in the shares of Watani Iron Steel Co., which occurred before and after the company's direct listing on the Parallel Market (Nomu). These violations were committed by five individuals convicted under the decision issued by the Appeal Committee for Resolution of Securities Disputes (ACRSD), published on the websites of the CMA and the GS-CRSD on April 4, 2024. The decision, resulting from the penal lawsuit filed by the Public Prosecution and referred by the Capital Market Authority, obligated them to pay SAR 41.4 million in illegal gains resulting from these violations. The compensations were deposited into the accounts of the affected investors through the Compensation Fund, which was established pursuant to a resolution of the CMA's Board to compensate affected parties in accordance with the distribution plan approved by the CRSD. This facilitates the compensation process and ensures that entitlements are delivered to their rightful owners with minimal effort.

Perak one of M'sia's top durian-producing states last year, says MB

Perak menteri besar Saarani Mohmad said the state is focusing on widening access to its premium kampung durians through branding strategies. (Bernama pic) PETALING JAYA : Perak has emerged as one of the leading durian-producing states in Malaysia, with a production volume of 59,217.3 tonnes worth RM462.28 million in 2024. Menteri besar Saarani Mohamad lauded this as proof of Perak's capability in the durian export market. Saarani said Malaysia exported durians produced in Perak to more than 40 countries between 2017 and 2023, with 73% of the export value concentrated in China. 'In 2022, Malaysia's durian export value reached RM1.14 billion, including RM887 million to China. 'Demand for varieties such as Musang King, Black Thorn, D24, IOI, and premium kampung durians from Perak continues to rise,' Bernama reported him as saying at the closing ceremony of the 2025 Perak Durian Fest at Dataran Selama today. He said Malaysia's durian export value is expected to reach RM1.8 billion by 2030, with an annual growth rate of 20% to 25%. Saarani said Perak's current focus is on widening access to premium kampung durians through branding strategies, quality certification and digital marketing. 'Durians from Perak are also in demand in Singapore, Hong Kong, the US and Australia, with the price of kampung durians from Malaysia reaching RM29 per 600g and Musang King durians being sold for up to RM400 per 2.5kg. 'Some local entrepreneurs are aggressively promoting durian-based products like durian chocolates, durian coffee, durian cakes, instant tempoyak sambal and durian ice cream in markets like China,' he said.

Ringgit ends higher on Malaysia-US trade deal optimism

KUALA LUMPUR : The ringgit ended higher against the US dollar, buoyed by optimism that Malaysia could secure more favourable trade negotiations with the US, said an analyst. The local currency has traded higher versus the US dollar for the fifth consecutive day. Investment, trade and industry minister Tengku Zafrul Aziz said Malaysia is actively engaging in discussions with the US over the impending 25% tariff rate set to take effect on Aug 1, aiming to secure a rate below 20%. SPI Asset Management managing partner Stephen Innes said regional tailwinds further lifted sentiment after US president Donald Trump concluded a trade deal with Japan on Tuesday, which included reducing tariffs on the import of Japanese goods into the US to 15% from 25%. 'These developments are fuelling hopes that Washington's broader tariff strategy is shifting from confrontation to compromise. 'Against this backdrop, investors see Malaysia as a likely beneficiary of the next wave of bilateral deals,' he told Bernama. Innes added that the ringgit's recent gains may signal its potential to benefit from improved trade conditions following the US-Japan agreement. At 6pm, the ringgit rose to 4.2135/4.2210 against the greenback from yesterday's close of 4.2255/4.2300. At the close, the ringgit was higher against a basket of major currencies. It advanced against the Japanese yen to 2.8751/2.8804 from 2.8837/2.8870, rose against the British pound to 5.7080/5.7182 from 5.7230/5.7291, and inched up against the euro to 4.9517/4.9605 from 4.9586/4.9639. The local currency was firmer against regional peers, except the Philippine peso. It increased vis-à-vis the Singapore dollar to 3.2995/3.3057 from 3.3071/3.3109, appreciated against the Thai baht to 13.0570/13.0863 from 13.1370/13.1567, and improved versus the Indonesian rupiah to 258.5/259.1 from 259.1/259.5. However, the local currency traded slightly lower against the Philippine peso, at 7.43/7.45, compared to 7.42/7.44 at yesterday's close.
