The Union of Arab Securities Authorities approved its Third Strategic Plan for 2026–2030 at the board’s twentieth meeting, held remotely and hosted by the Tunisian Financial Market Council on 22 April 2026. The plan sets the union’s next priorities around four pillars: stronger cooperation, communication and regulatory harmonization among members, capital market development, work on sustainability and technology-related issues, and education, capacity-building, awareness and financial inclusion. The new plan builds on the union’s 2021–2025 strategy, under which it said it strengthened its regional and international standing, established a broader framework for cooperation and coordination among members, and developed common rules for adoption in areas including financial technology, cybersecurity, financial inclusion, sustainability and anti-money laundering. In preparing the 2026–2030 plan, the designated committee grouped the main strategic issues after assessing the challenges facing Arab financial markets, their needs and influencing factors, and taking into account member feedback gathered through a questionnaire.
