Panel 6: Data driving Capital Markets: Monetizing Insights and the Future of data in Shaping Capital Markets

Sell-side entities, including investment banks and brokerages, generate valuable proprietary data from market analysis, trading, and client interactions, offering insights into market trends, consumer behaviour, and economic indicators. However, monetizing this data presents challenges, particularly due to regulatory constraints around data privacy and security. Firms must comply with these regulations while investing in advanced analytics infrastructure to manage large volumes of data. On the buy-side, firms leverage this data to gain competitive insights and enhance investment strategies. Meanwhile, infrastructure companies such as stock exchanges and clearinghouses also play a significant role in data monetization, using their vast transactional data to provide services like predictive analytics and risk management solutions. With the rapid advancements in AI and the increasing importance of data-driven solutions, this session will explore the future of data in capital markets. Can we envision a world where data-backed solutions become central to capital market development?

Panel 7: ESG at the Crossroads of ESG: Navigating Commitments and Future Investment Strategies

ESG issues have gained significant traction in recent years, although some have questioned whether momentum has waned. Many investors now factor ESG considerations into their investment decision-making processes, with a notable portion of global investors viewing ESG as central to their strategies while others integrate it into their overall approach. Amid various economic transformations, countries like the UAE and Saudi Arabia have made ambitious commitments to sustainability, with Saudi Arabia aiming for net zero by 2060 and targeting 50% renewable energy in its energy mix by 2030. As part of the Saudi Green Initiative, the Kingdom has established a 2030 emissions-reduction target, underscoring its commitment to global climate goals. In response to these initiatives, MENA stock exchanges and governments are actively promoting ESG adoption, while private sector companies are increasingly issuing sustainable debt instruments, such as bonds and sukuk. These instruments not only attract investments but also foster sustainable development in alignment with both national and international sustainability targets.
