The Qatar Financial Markets Authority (QFMA) is organising a comprehensive awareness and educational campaign under the title "Protect your Investments by Knowing Your Rights & Obligations". The campaign, which will start at the beginning of February and run until March 31, aims to raise awareness among investors in the GCC countries and to spread awareness of the fundamentals of investment in financial markets and methods of fraud and risks.
It also aims to emphasise the need to adopt strategies, helping to reduce risks and identify the rules and legislations that govern dealings in the financial markets, in order to increase the standards of efficiency and integrity in such markets.
The campaign comes as a part of the Gulf Investment Awareness Programme "Mulem", a joint programme among the GCC financial market regulators, which was launched in early November 2020, and targets participants dealing in the financial markets from various sectors.
Under this programme, each GCC financial market regulator sponsors a specific period of the programme, by publishing various awareness messages that include press releases and messages published on the websites, social media, and various other media.
The QFMA attaches great importance to awareness in the financial markets to develop the level of investors' skill and knowledge, protect and enable them to make the proper and right investment decision, with the aim of encouraging and developing investment in a safe and attractive financial market in a way that supports the growth and diversity of the national economy.
