Sources have suggested the Kuwaiti bourse is set to change the limits for trading shares in one transaction whether it is buying or selling by removing the maximum limit of five million shares in one transaction. The aim is to improve the environment for investment companies. Under the amendments, there will not be a limit on the number of shares which can be bought or sold in one transaction as long as the number of traded shares does not exceed 5% of the company’s capital in the Bourse. The amount of shares bought by an investor must also not trigger the need to request an obligatory request offer for purchase under Kuwait Law No. 7/2010 as amended.
