Regional securities markets are changing and growing rapidly. They are quickly being forced to face and find solutions to challenges that other, more mature markets had years to come to terms with. Corporate governance, transparency, and public education reign supreme as the largest challenges needing rectification by leaders of regional securities markets. If the massive liquidity found in the region continues (i.e. whilst oil prices remain high and the economic diversification boom persists unabated) and regional markets stay relatively small and closed to foreign traders, the dangers of shareholder monopoly and insider trading loom.
Providing education, facilitating more opportunities to attract shareholders, building awareness and slowly opening the securities markets to foreign investors are four fundamental issues that will be addressed by securities markets in the years to come. e-Trading is also an unavoidable trend that GCC markets will quickly begin to adopt.
This two-day conference will cover important issues and challenges facing the UAE and GCC securities markets, offering you the chance to understand new initiatives focusing on market deregulation and liberalization, and experience first-hand the moves towards reform measures and changes in structural and regulatory conditions in securities markets and institutions.
Promoting the application and implementation of international financial best practices, this event will also help foster the integration of local markets into the global financial system.
