Through its Batch III of 2022
Research Agenda, the Capital Market Authority (CMA) aims to build bridges of
communications with the researchers in academic institutions and research
centers to conduct sound applied researches serving different aspects of capital
markets and CMA's primary functions.
The
study forms in the current year include measuring the impact of CMA’s
regulation and instructions on the capital market, assessing listed companies’
board members’ roles and regulatory obligations, and the companies’ performance
since listing, in addition to assessing the investment funds’ performance.
Based
on believing in the importance of scientific research, the CMA periodically
opens the door for submission to the Research Agenda project for all
researchers in academic institutions and research centers by publishing the
research areas on its website and the time frame for submission, screening and
selection.
Ahmad
Alenizi, assistant deputy of the Capital Market
Authority for Strategic and International Affairs, said that the CMA is keen on
supporting the researchers, sponsoring research projects, and holding the
workshops for discussing results and recommendations of studies and researches
with concerned parties inside and outside CMA, in addition to connecting the
academics with capital market issues and raising financial culture level among
the public.
The
CMA seeks, through its research agenda, to improve the quality of research
outputs related to the Saudi capital market in universities, research and
academic centers, and aims to benefit from the results and recommendations of
those research in supporting the development of the Saudi capital market and
strengthening the supervisory role of the CMA". Alenizi added.
The
Assistant Deputy indicated that the CMA, since the beginning of the research
agenda in 2017, has supported 36 researchers representing 13 academic and
research bodies. After the adoption of the new mechanism for the research
agenda (publishing research agenda batches in the CMA website) in 2021, the CMA
received approximately 66 research proposals, and the CMA worked to support a
number of them according to the approved evaluation and selection methodology.
The
CMA is inviting all researchers,
in academic institutions and research centers, to submit research proposals, in
the specific research areas, via visiting CMA official website and accessing
the designated E-form.
