Description: KSA iShares MSCI Saudi Arabia December 25, 2025

The iShares MSCI Saudi Arabia ETF (NYSE ARCA: KSA) commits at least 80% of its assets to securities that are either constituents of the MSCI Saudi Arabia Index or have economic characteristics that closely mirror those constituents. The index is free-float-adjusted, market-cap weighted, incorporates foreign ownership caps, and spans large, mid, and small-cap Saudi equities.

Key context: Saudi Arabia’s equity market is heavily weighted toward energy (≈ 55% of the index) and financial services (≈ 25%), reflecting the kingdom’s oil-centric economy and recent banking reforms. As of Q3 2024, the MSCI Saudi Arabia Index reported a 12-month total return of roughly 8%, while the country’s GDP grew 3.2% YoY, driven by Vision 2030 diversification initiatives. KSA’s expense ratio stands at 0.45%, and its assets under management have risen to about $1.2 billion, indicating growing investor interest in exposure to the region’s reform-driven growth.
