Credit Risk
To manage credit risk, Arab Invest sets appropriate country and counterparty limits and conducts regular exposure reviews. The GRC Department performs ongoing assessments and reports key observations and any exceptions to Board GRCC and the senior management.
Market Risk
Arab Invest investment activities are primarily exposed to foreign exchange, equity price, and interest rate risks. These risks are managed through defined risk appetite limits, portfolio diversification and ongoing market monitoring.
Operational Risk
Arab Invest embed operational risk oversight into its day-to-day investment activities, ensuring an appropriate balance between risk, return, and cost. Operational risk is periodically assessed through the Risk & Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) process and monitored using Key Risk Indicators (KRIs An Internal Loss Data (ILD) process further supports the assessment of operational risk exposures and the effectiveness of internal controls. Management of operational risk includes third-party oversight and business continuity management.
Business continuity risk is managed in accordance with the Company’s Business Continuity Management Policy, which establishes the framework for maintaining critical operations in the event of disruption and limit losses in the event of severe business disruption. During 2025, Arab Invest enhanced its Business Continuity Management (BCM) framework through the implementation of updated BCM policies and procedures. This initiative included the completion of comprehensive business impact analyses and risk assessments, as well as the development of tailored Business Continuity Plans for each department. These enhancements reflect the evolving nature of the business and its operating environment, strengthening organizational resilience, improving preparedness for potential disruptions, and ensuring the continuity of critical operations while minimizing operational and reputational risks.
Liquidity Risk
Arab Invest adopts a prudent approach to liquidity risk management to ensure it can meet operational needs and investment commitments as they arise. As the balance sheet is fully funded by shareholders’ equity with no external borrowings or material liabilities, liquidity risk exposure is limited. Liquidity levels are monitored through cash flow forecasting and portfolio liquidity assessments to ensure Arab Invest maintains sufficient liquid resources to meet its obligations and respond effectively to market developments.
Reputational Risk
Management of reputational risk is an inherent feature of Arab Invest corporate culture and is embedded as an integral part of the internal control systems. Arab Invest maintains the highest level of professional standards in conducting its investment business and places paramount importance on its reputation through honesty, integrity, and ethical standards.
