The Saudi Exchange (Tadawul) announced amendments to its minimal incremental price movement bands of traded securities on an order book (tick size bands) for the Main Market (TASI) and the Nomu-Parallel Market, excluding debt instruments.
These changes, slated to come into effect as of June 29, further align Tadawul with best global practices, according to a statement.
The new tick size regime introduces thinner price spreads. This is besides an additional band for securities priced at SAR 500 and above in order to maintain a sound minimum price variation.
