Oman’s Financial Services Authority (FSA) has introduced new regulations governing public joint-stock companies, with stronger requirements for market disclosure, transparency and investor protection. Companies are required to promptly disclose material information that could affect the market, including significant negative developments.

The regulations also require companies to respond when significant undisclosed or inaccurate information circulates in newspapers, analytical reports or social media by confirming, denying or correcting the information. They establish clearer procedures for companies seeking to suspend operations or cancel licences, including plans to meet obligations and settle customer rights.
