DOHA: The CEO of Qatar Stock Exchange (QSE), Rashid Ali Al Mansoori, said yesterday that the QSE has undertaken a number of measures to support the attraction of foreign investments; and will organise a trip to the Asian market during the second half of 2019 to attract capital.
Speaking to the QNA, he said that the Asian market has considerable capital, but it does not have much information on the Qatari market, which includes very healthy listed companies with strong performance and attractive cash dividends.
Al Mansoori added that the second trip to the United States will be held in September with a group of listed Qatari companies to meet investors, answer their queries and introduce the latest developments in the Qatari market.
On stock splitting, Al Mansoori declared that the listed companies have started working on the approval of the stock split through their general assemblies, adding that QSE will wait for this to be completed by all the listed companies and the appropriate time and mechanism will be chosen during the first half of this year to move in this direction.
On the new investment funds, he pointed out that there are a number of funds under study, pointing to the existence of two funds, one in the real estate sector and another in the Islamic sector.
