Albilad Capital has officially deployed the Horizon Trading Solutions platform, marking a strategic upgrade to its technological infrastructure. The move is designed to modernise the firm’s operational systems in response to the rapid expansion of the Saudi capital market. By adopting this technology, Albilad Capital aims to align its market-making and trading services with international best practices and reinforce its position as a prominent financial institution.

The new ecosystem features an advanced algorithmic Order Management System (OMS) that enables automated order execution. This technology reduces the need for manual intervention, ensuring higher accuracy and speed in processing trades. Additionally, the platform provides real-time market monitoring and high responsiveness, which improves overall execution quality and operational efficiency.

This initiative reflects Albilad Capital’s broader strategy to enhance the sophistication of its brokerage services. By integrating these automated solutions, the company intends to support the competitiveness and transparency of the Saudi financial sector while fostering innovation within the regional capital market.
