‘QSE randomised auctions to curb price manipulation’

The Qatar Stock Exchange (QSE) has implemented a randomised uncrossing mechanism for its opening and closing auction sessions in an effort to deter potential share price manipulation and bolster market fairness. This move aligns with the exchange's dedication to maintaining orderly and efficient markets, adhering to international standards set by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO).

The mechanism aims to make the precise timing of auction execution unpredictable for traders, thereby reducing opportunities for speculation or manipulation at critical moments during the trading session.
