(MENAFN) Saudi stock exchange (Tadawul) announced that it inked a deal with MSCI, the index provider, to create Saudi equity market indices, reported Arabian Business.

Tadawul added that MSCI will re-launch the MSCI GCC countries Index and the MSCI Arabian Markets Index, in addition to local versions of current regional indexes.

Moreover, the provider will also re-launch coverage of the Saudi equity market, with the introduction of individual country indices.

It is worth noting that two years ago, MSCI withdrew its Saudi indexes, following a dispute with Tadawul over licensing rights.
