SUMMARY:The booming legal market in Saudi Arabia: opportunities and chall
 enges
DESCRIPTION:The Saudi Arabian economy grew at its fastest past in a decad
 e in the third quarter of 2021\, leading to growth in not only a myriad 
 of industries but also to a boom in the legal services sector. Kingdom's
  vision (2030) foresees a promising future for the legal services sector
  by increasing the number of regulating legislations and amendments: New
  Companies Laws\, Financial Market Regulations\, Competition Rules\, Law
  of Evidence … This new and moving legal frame will be covered by specia
 lists from KSA \, the region and beyond. The increasing presence of majo
 r law firms is also undeniable in the following industries: Corporate/M&
 amp\;A\, Capital Markets\, Banking &amp\; Finance and Real Estate\, Cons
 truction &amp\; Infrastructure projects\, Energy (oil\, gas\, and mining
 ). Furthermore\, the panel will tackle how Saudi lawyers are trained and
  the legal profession is regulated including through the Saudi Bar Assoc
 iation\, and the route to becoming a lawyer in the KSA. We’ll thus also 
 cover the key legal players in KSA and in the region. The panel will the
 n turn to discussing the various sources of legislation in the Saudi leg
 al system\, including Shariah and the influence of civil and common laws
 \, as well as how the Saudi judiciary actually works. At last\, there wi
 ll be a lot to say about the 2012 Enforcement and Arbitration Laws and t
 he rising Saudi Centre for Commercial Arbitration (SCCA).
