SNB Capital came in second, brokering nearly SAR 51.01 billion, or 17.4% of the market transactions. Derayah Financial came third, accounting for SAR 22.96 billion, or 7.8% of the total trading value.

The following table shows the brokerage firms operating in Saudi Arabia during October. It is worth noting that the total trading values are twice the amount reported by Tadawul due to the calculation method, as brokerage firms earn a commission from both the buyer and the seller for each transaction.

By the end of October, the combined traded value of brokerage firms reached approximately SAR 293.4 billion, representing a 31% year-on-year (YoY) increase.

In the Nomu-Parallel Market, Al Rajhi Capital led its peers in October, brokering nearly SAR 617.4 million.

Meanwhile, the number of brokerages involved in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) rose to 21 in October, with Albilad Investment topping the list by brokering nearly SAR 213.2 million.
