The Qatari bourse will launch government or sovereign bonds as well as state-issued Islamic ‘sukuk’ as part of its plans to introduce bond trading, Zawya reports. The Qatar Exchange will not put any restrictions on bond trading transactions carried out by foreign investors.

Issuers may put restrictions on investors willing to trade in bonds by setting out conditions at the time of listing. The bourse will produce daily trading reports at the end of each daily trading session and include a specific section for bond trading activity and prices.
