The Capital Markets Authority Board issued Decision No. 83 of 2013 to amend Decision No. 102 of 2008 regarding the mandatory insurance deposits for securities companies seeking licensing. The amendment reduces the required deposit for firms participating in the establishment or capital increase of securities issuers from a rate of one percent per ten thousand to one percent per one hundred thousand of the company's issued capital. Approved on December 23, 2013, the decision took effect the day after its official publication in the Egyptian Gazette and the Authority's website.
The insurance value to be deposited with the Authority by companies conducting the activity of "participating in the establishment of companies issuing securities or increasing their capital", as stipulated in Article One of Decision No. 102 of 2008 of the Capital Markets Authority Board, is amended to become "one per one hundred thousand" as a percentage of the company's issued capital, instead of "one per ten thousand".
