With current globalization trends, turning the world into one small village, world capital markets endeavor to meet international principles and standards to limit differences in institutional and legislative structures as well as procedures of trading, clearing and settlement. All capital markets mainly wish to set appropriate environment for foreign investments that consider securities stock exchanges a most convenient outlet, particularly in emerging economies. In those markets, foreign investors prefer to deal in already existing companies rather than establishing new ones. The CMA does its best to apply international standards and principles governing the capital markets:    1. International Organization Of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles.    2. OECD Corporate Governance Principles.    3. International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).    4. Anti-Money Laundering recommendations issued by FATF.
