00:00 We have recently seen Saudi markets with a large number of companies, but the Saudi
00:07 market administration has also worked over the past period to provide more financial
00:12 tools to investors in order to diversify the options in front of them, and this is by launching
00:19 the global financial equity market that we saw in its launch in 2020.
00:24 Therefore, today we are launching new tools in this market, and we have the individual
00:30 options contracts that have become available in the Saudi market as a third product in
00:36 the financial equity market in circulation.
00:39 Therefore, in August 2020, there was a launch of the future contracts for the MT30 indicator,
00:47 and we also had the future contracts for the individual stocks that were launched in
00:54 July 2022 to include about 10 companies.
00:58 As for the new tools that have been circulated and provided to investors today, they are
01:04 the individual options contracts that were launched in the circulation session today,
01:12 which will include four companies.
01:15 These companies are considered one of the largest listed companies in the Saudi market
01:20 and are the largest in circulation.
01:22 These companies will include, first of all, Aramco, which has about 73% of the market value
01:30 of the Saudi market and has about 6% of the total circulation.
01:35 We also have in the banking sector, the Rashi bank with 3% of the market value and about
01:42 6% of the total circulation.
01:44 Notice here the diversity in the companies that were launched, whether in the telecommunications
01:49 sector or energy.
01:50 This time, we also have SABIC, which has about 2% of the market value and 2% of the
01:56 circulation, in addition to STC, which also represents 2% of the market value and 3% of
02:02 the total circulation.
02:04 But for these new tools, if we were talking here about the options contracts, their importance
02:11 is that they will work to save more liquidity, to provide new tools to investors, in addition
02:17 to managing risks in a larger and better way.
02:21 And thus, it is a turnabout and efficiency in managing investment risks for investors.
02:27 And thus, we notice that this tool will also be managed by the company that will measure
02:33 the financial documents that will balance these contracts.
02:37 The use of the financial license that will be included in these options will also work
02:44 to achieve more profit for the investor who uses these tools.
02:49 But if we talk today about the difference between stocks and options contracts, there
02:54 are several points that we will highlight, starting with the options contracts, which
02:59 do not represent a real ownership in the company.
03:02 And thus, in exchange for the stocks, there will be a real ownership in the company.
03:06 As for the shares, there is no expiration date for this contract.
03:15 There will be a discount payment only, in addition to the profits from the decrease in
03:20 prices through the sales contracts.
03:22 Here we notice that this difference between the options contracts and the shares contracts,
03:27 and the provision of these tools remains the best option that the Saudi market is working
03:32 on at this time to diversify investments and also to enter the foreign markets, investors,
03:38 foreigners and investors.
