The digital investment platform said it has signed a binding investment undertaking agreement with Olayan Saudi to a subscription of 4.68 million offer shares at the final offering price.
It will account for roughly 1.88 per cent of the company’s post-IPO share capital.

The price range implies an offering size between SAR 1.35 billion and SAR 1.50 billion.
The institutional book-building period commenced on 2 February and ends on 9 February.
The final offering price will be determined at the end of the book-building process on February 13.
Retail subscription will open on 20 February, with the final allocation on 27 February.
