Gulf General Cooperative Insurance Co. (Gulf General) unveiled the prospectus for its capital increase through offering rights issue shares worth SAR 300 million.

 

The company said that the increase represents 150%, so the capital after increase will hit SAR 500 million.

 

Shareholders will vote on the board’s recommendation on the capital increase, during the extraordinary general meeting (EGM) that will be held on June 28.

 

The capital hike aims to support the expansion of the company's activity, in line with requirements of financial solvency.
