The session ended with MSX recounting MEIRA’s efforts in Oman’s IR function development journey, while thanking them for their support in preparing the survey and guide. The Association also announce its ‘Sustainable Investments’ (SI) initiatives for IR and ESG and the upcoming guidelines and disclosure platforms, and urged the listed companies to stay tuned to MSX SI section on its official portal for future updates.
