The Gulf Bond and Sukuk Association (GBSA) has revealed a detailed compendium of the nascent markets for local currency government-issued instruments. This is the first collection of its kind in the Gulf region.
The summary was put together with the contributions from many of its member institutions across the Gulf region.
The document concentrates for the first time all of the conventional and Islamic treasury bills and bonds, certificates of deposit and other instruments available in local money and capital markets.
This publication is one of a series of steps taken by the GBSA to accelerate the growth of regional debt capital markets.
