Qatar: Financial Centre to Revise Regulations in Early 2016

November 12 2015
The Peninsula, 12 November 2015: The Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) has announced plans to introduce revised regulations by early next year to enable QFC-registered firms to list on the Qatar Exchange more easily.

The aim is also to align the Centre’s Rules more closely with those of the Qatar Central Bank and other regulatory bodies.

It will also provide QFC-registered companies with more access to the local market, including listing on the Qatari bourse and help launch Exchange Traded Funds.
