05/05/2026

SICO executed a total of 17,683 transactions throughout 2025, involving 1.86 billion shares, with a total value reaching BHD1.01 billion, while capturing the majority of block trades during the year. The firm continues to provide clients with a comprehensive brokerage offering, supported by its digital trading platform, SICO LIVE, and its established regional research capabilities.

Mariam Isa, Head of Brokerage, commented: “Our success for the past 27 years is a testament to our commitment to Bahrain and the dedication of our exceptional team. Their unwavering commitment, coupled with our continually expanding expert research capabilities, sets us apart as a trusted partner for both institutional entities and individual investors. In a market marked by uncertainty, SICO's ability to adapt and excel has positioned it as a beacon of reliability. As we continue to evolve and innovate, our commitment to serving the diverse needs of our clients remains steadfast. SICO is not just a broker; we are a dependable ally in our clients’ financial journey, providing them with the insight, support, and trust they deserve in navigating the complexities of the capital markets.”

SICO’s Brokerage division provides a comprehensive range of services across Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, including direct trading in equities, bonds, and sukuk; single-product brokerage across the GCC and wider MENA region; and margin trading facilities. In addition, SICO’s Global Markets desk offers access to international equities, bonds, and ETFs across more than 17 countries and over 20 exchanges.

Building on this leadership, SICO continues to drive innovation to meet evolving investor needs. As part of these efforts, SICO recently introduced International Bonds and Sukuk Trading with a minimum investment of USD 25,000 significantly lower than the traditional USD 200,000 threshold. This initiative enables clients to diversify their portfolios and access fixed income opportunities that were previously less accessible, supporting more balanced and resilient investment strategies.
