GEMC Annual Meetings

The IOSCO Growth and Emerging Markets Committee (GEMC) annual meetings have concluded in Malta, following a programme held from 18 to 20 November 2025 that brought together regulators from the GEMC and the European Regional Committee (ERC) to discuss shared priorities in global financial markets.

The Union of Arab Securities Authorities (UASA), represented by its Secretary General, participated in the event, which opened with a public conference organized by the Malta Financial Services Authority. The conference brought together international regulators, policymakers, and market leaders to explore emerging-market opportunities, capital-market development, and regulatory innovation in areas such as crypto-assets, artificial intelligence. The subsequent committee meetings included the GEMC plenary, workshops dedicated to emerging jurisdictions, and the full ERC meeting. Discussions throughout the event focused on cross-border risks, the growing importance of international cooperation, and capacity-building initiatives aimed at supporting stable markets and sustainable economic growth. UASA’s participation reflects its ongoing commitment to strengthening regulatory coordination and advancing capital-market development across the Arab region.
