Issued by President Liamine Zeroual of Algeria, this ordinance amends the 1993 decree governing the securities exchange to introduce specific regulatory changes. It permits off-exchange, negotiated trading for state and corporate bonds for an initial eighteen-month period and expands the scope of licensed intermediaries to include non-listed financial products. Additionally, the text mandates that client funds entrusted to intermediaries for investment must be transferred exclusively via bank wire.
