Tunisia's Financial Market Authority has released the first issue of its scientific journal, titled "Journal of the Financial Market Authority." The journal aims to analyze issues related to Tunisia's financial market and publish accurate and reliable financial information. It targets professionals, researchers, investors, and those interested in the financial market's role in national economy financing.
The journal's first issue highlights key challenges facing financial markets at the national and international levels. It also introduces the Authority's recent activities in regulating and supervising the financial market. According to the Authority, the journal is a result of efforts by its staff and experts to produce specialized knowledge while performing their primary regulatory and supervisory tasks.
The Financial Market Authority emphasized its commitment to promoting transparency and financial literacy, contributing to a deeper understanding of trends and challenges in Tunisia's financial market. The journal is available on the Authority's official website and presents an overview of the financial market's developments during the first half of 2026.
The first issue reports a significant increase in the "Tunindex" indicator, which rose by 47.69%. The total market value of listed shares reached 48.778 billion dinars, a 63.4% increase. All 12 listed sectors showed positive performance, a trend not seen in the past five years.
The volume of transactions also increased, reaching 2029.8 million dinars, partly driven by three exceptional block trades in April 2026. However, the primary stock market continued to decline due to a lack of new listings and capital increases.
Despite these challenges, the secondary market showed notable activity. The journal's publication demonstrates the Financial Market Authority's efforts to enhance financial market analysis and information dissemination in Tunisia.
By releasing this scientific journal, the Financial Market Authority aims to contribute to the development of Tunisia's financial market and promote a culture of transparency and accountability. The Authority plans to continue publishing the journal to provide valuable insights and updates on the country's financial market.
