Total subscriptions to NCB’s initial public offering reached 22.3 percent by the end of eighth day, amid fears of weak sentiment.
The bank floated 25 percent (500 million shares) of its capital on an IPO of which 300 million shares were dedicated to nationals.
By the end of business yesterday, total number of individual subscribers reached around 551,000 with total proceeds of approximately SAR 3.01 billion, said managers GIB Capital and HSBC Saudi Arabia.
A religious fatwa from a prestigious Saudi body deemed the IPO incompliant with Sharia, due to the bank’s mainstream conventional business-- an opinion that may evidently influence sentiment.
The IPO will close on November 2, 2014.
