Previously, our funds in the Kingdom received no attention, either from the media or from specialists in the field. The focus was solely on the Saudi stock market, from analysts and daily news. However, we are grateful because now we are in a competitive field, and we are pleased and honored. We wish all companies success in competition.

I think it's an excellent step, and although it came late, it's still good to start today. Such awards indeed create and enhance a competitive spirit among fund managers and asset managers. Therefore, we are very pleased with the initiative being taken locally, and We wish the organizers of the award all the success and good luck; they have the advantage in this matter, and we pray to God for their success.

The presence of such awards motivates the entire sector, as it increases competitiveness among fund managers to showcase their unique investment capabilities in the Saudi market. This, in turn, reflects positively on the sector as a whole and benefits the investors in these funds, ultimately serving the interests of the national economy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Certainly, it is a positive step and a new addition to the Saudi market, particularly because it involves a local judging panel and evaluation of investment funds, which many international awards lack. This is a source of pride for us, as it is a Saudi-made initiative driven by ambitious youth.

I believe that awards like these are very important. The significance of any award lies in its impartiality, the judging panel, and the evaluation criteria. Unfortunately, the Kingdom lacks a large number of these professional efforts that work on evaluating the efforts of those in the sector and identifying outstanding performance. There is no doubt that market diversity provides an opportunity for competition and allows the exceptional to shine.

There's no doubt that the presence of companies that monitor the performance of funds in the Saudi market and recognize excellence in this field enhances competition. Indeed, having a distinguished Saudi investment company that analyzes performance, evaluates, and honors excellence adds significant value to the sector not only at the level of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia but the Middle East. We hope that such companies continue to grow and succeed for years, as they are considered a partner in the success of investment companies operating in the market.
