LSEG celebrates Qatar Day

LSEG was delighted to welcome a high-level delegation from the State of Qatar to open the market and mark the launch of Qatar Day at LSEG, a flagship capital markets event highlighting Qatar’s growing partnership with global investors and its progress in developing a vibrant and sustainable capital market.

The team celebrating on the balcony at LSEG during the welcome ceremony.

The ceremony opened with remarks by Charlie Walker, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of London Stock Exchange, followed by a fireside chat between H.E. Ali Al Kuwari, Minister of Finance of the State of Qatar, and David Schwimmer, Group Chief Executive Officer of LSEG. The discussion explored Qatar’s economic transformation, sustainable finance leadership, and the opportunities under Qatar National Vision 2030.

Throughout the day, panels brought together senior representatives from Qatar’s leading institutions — including Qatar National Bank, Ooredoo, Invest Qatar, Qatar Investment Authority, and the Qatar Stock Exchange — with global investors and banks such as BlackRock, PIMCO, Ashmore, Barclays and Standard Chartered Bank. Topics included sustainable finance, capital market reforms, and IPO opportunities.

“Qatar Day at LSEG showcases our commitment to deepening our capital markets and strengthening connections with global investors.”
