Gulf Daily News » Qatar foreign ownership limit remains

Foreign ownership limits in Qatar, a key issue in the Gulf state's potential upgrade by index compiler MSCI, are likely to remain at 25 per cent through June, the bourse's chief executive officer said yesterday.

"I wouldn't expect news on any changes by June," Qatar Exchange chief executive Andre Went said.

MSCI has delayed until June a decision on whether it will upgrade Qatar and the UAE from frontier market to emerging market status, a move that would boost liquidity on local markets.
