Brokerage Platform Sahm Opens Saudi Stock Trading to Global Investors

Saudi-based brokerage Sahm App has introduced services enabling retail investors worldwide to invest directly in Saudi-listed securities.

The platform, licensed and regulated by the Capital Market Authority, supports onboarding for eligible international investors following regulatory changes that opened the Saudi capital market to all categories of foreign investors. The decision was issued on January 6th, 2026, and took effect on February 1st, 2026.

Through the platform, international users can access Saudi-listed equities, exchange-traded funds and real estate investment trusts within a single trading interface. The company said the expanded access provides investors with an additional option for geographic and sector diversification within global portfolios.

To lower entry costs for individual investors, Sahm offers lifetime zero-brokerage commission trading on Saudi stocks. The platform reports more than one million users in Saudi Arabia.

Sahm’s services are available through mobile applications on the iOS App Store, Google Play and Huawei AppGallery, with access to both Saudi and United States equity markets.
