In a February 2, 2026 session, the Court of Cassation upheld the Court of Appeal ruling affirming the Qatar Financial Markets Authority (QFMA) Appeal Committee decision that confirmed QFMA disciplinary sanctions against external auditor RPME Limited. The upheld measures permanently remove RPME Limited from the QFMA’s lists and cancel its registration, impose a financial penalty of QAR 5 million, and require notifying the Ministry of Commerce and Industry of the violation for appropriate action.
