Bank Investment Rules
The Saudi Central Bank (SAMA) has issued the Bank Investment Rules to establish a comprehensive internal investment framework and risk management standards for all licensed banks. The regulations mandate clear governance structures, robust risk assessment and monitoring mechanisms, and specific approval requirements for local and international investments. Banks must align their investment policies, limits, and stress-testing procedures with SAMA’s guidelines by the October 1, 2022 effective date to ensure capital safety and regulatory compliance.
