Walaa Cooperative Insurance Co. announced the prospectus for its capital increase through a SAR 467.5 million rights offering.

 

The capital hike is aimed to support the company’s business expansion and boost its solvency.

 

For More IPOs

 

Proceeds from the rights offering will be used to up the company’s statutory deposit, as per the requirements of the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA).

 

This is in addition to securing long-term investments such as bonds and other fixed income investments, bank deposits, mutual and real estate funds, and investments in private companies, in addition to investing in Saudi-listed equities.

 

The Capital Market Authority (CMA) approved last August the request received from the company to increase capital through a rights issue, as per Argaam's data.
