Branches measured together

Our branches in different cities. Calculated separately?

The situation

Developed Nitaqat assesses compliance across all branches with the same economic activity. It does not look at each branch on its own.

The law

  • Developed Nitaqat Programme (Ministerial Decision 182495; Procedural Guide 2026): Required Saudi percentage depends on entity size and activity; bands Platinum, Green levels and Red

What it means for you

Because compliance is measured across branches with the same activity, a strong branch can offset a weak one. Opening, closing or moving branches changes your entity rate, so model the effect before restructuring.

What to do

  1. Review all branches.
  2. Plan.
  3. Monitor.
