Saudi Capital Market Authority (CMA) has slapped Emaar The Economic City with a SAR 100,000 fine for regulatory violations, the CMA said in a statement Tuesday.

 

The developer reportedly failed to get the go-ahead from shareholders concerning the signing of two deals with Al Arabia Maintenance & Spare Parts Co. on January 22, 2017.

 

The issue also raised concerns of conflict of interest since an Emaar EC board member reportedly owns a direct 80 percent stake in Al Arabia.

 

Tadawul-listed Emaar EC first announced in January that it awarded the two contracts to Al Arabia at a total value of SAR 51.3 million, Argaam earlier reported.
