Based on the powers vested to SAMA under its supervisory and regulatory authority derived from relevant regulations and rules, and in light of recent observations regarding the use of SAMA's logo by some entities on their printed materials and publications without obtaining prior approval, which could damage the reputation of SAMA or use the logo for commercial purposes, or to mislead customers.
Accordingly, SAMA emphasizes to all entities under its supervision and regulation (banks, insurance companies, financing companies, credit information companies, insurance-related professional firms, and exchange companies/institutions) that they may not use SAMA's logo on their printed materials and publications except in cases where it's permitted. All entities must ensure that all their branches comply with the contents of this circular. SAMA will take appropriate measures against any violating entity in accordance with the relevant regulations.
