Guidelines on Repurchase Agreements
The Saudi Central Bank (SAMA) issued the Guidelines on Repurchase Agreements to ensure that repo transactions are conducted in accordance with regulatory requirements and international best practices. These guidelines mandate the use of standardized legal documentation and require financial institutions to implement robust risk management frameworks for their repurchase activities. The document serves as a regulatory directive for all banks operating within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to align their operational policies with SAMA's supervisory standards.
