ISLAMABAD (Web Desk) - The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) has stated that the country’s capital market remains stable despite challenging global economic conditions, highlighting opportunities for new investment.
In a statement, the SECP said that the trend of new listings on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) is continuing, reflecting investor confidence and market resilience.
The regulator also approved the Initial Public Offering (IPO) of a private tyre manufacturing company engaged in the production of truck and bus radial tyres. This marks the 12th IPO in the current fiscal year.
According to the statement, more than 389 million shares of the company have been offered for sale. The IPO will be conducted through the book-building mechanism.
