The Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) has asked companies to produce their audited annual financial report on time.
ADX said in a circular on Tuesday that the report should be approved by the board of directors of the company and submitted within three months after the end of a financial year.
The exchange also reiterated that board members and insiders will be automatically prevented from trading until the relevant annual financial report is received.
“The listed companies should either disclose the financial report before or after the trading session according to the circulation of Securities and Commodities Authority,” ADX said.
The circular was issued to highlight the importance of disclosure and transparency for the benefit of all stakeholders.
