Approved by the Saudi Cabinet on June 28, 2022, the measure allows a new form of company — called a Simplified Joint Stock Company — that meets the needs of entrepreneurship and venture capital growth. It reduces the legal requirements and procedures for small and medium enterprises, and simplifies the procedures for establishing companies. Many restrictions in the incorporation, practice and exit phases and restrictions on company names have been removed.
