09/04/2015 Argaam

Saudi Indian Company for Cooperative Insurance (WAFA) said it approved on Thursday a 105 percent capital raise from SAR 100 million to SAR 205 million through a rights issue.

The insurer is offering 10.5 million shares at SAR 10 per share.

Proceeds will go towards enhancing its solvency margin, legal reserves, and to develop the company’s businesses.

Last November, Saudi Arabia’s market regulator, the Capital Market Authority (CMA) approved WAFA’s request to raise its capital through a rights issue, according to data compiled by Argaam.
