The GSCMR (CME-1B) is a Computer-Based Test of 50 multiple-choice questions in 1 hour. The pass mark is 70% (35 out of 50). Exams are available year-round at Pearson VUE test centres.
Yes — the CISI General Saudi Capital Market Rules & Regulations exam is approved by the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) and is a requirement for professionals working in regulated roles in Saudi Arabia's financial sector.
GSCMR covers the Saudi CMA regulatory framework including authorised persons requirements, securities offerings, listing rules, market conduct, corporate governance, collective investment schemes, mergers and acquisitions, and enforcement procedures.
All content is created from the official CISI workbooks and compiled with input from financial professionals working in Saudi Arabia who have passed the GSCMR exam. Their regulatory knowledge and exam feedback are combined into our interactive study system.
No previous qualifications are required. However, GSCMR is typically taken by professionals already working in or entering Saudi Arabia's financial sector, so some familiarity with financial services is helpful.
We do not guarantee a pass — success requires reading the official CISI workbook and using our materials for active revision. Our recall-based approach is designed to help you memorise the specific CMA regulations and thresholds that the exam tests.

Helped a lot to clear my doubts and gain more confidence before the actual exam day. The progress tracker kept me accountable.
Solid question bank that covers all the tricky parts of the syllabus. Better than just reading the textbook on my own.
Drilling the specific Saudi reporting deadlines on my phone during my commute made a massive difference. Passed with an 84%.
If you are moving to Riyadh for a finance role, this is the GSCMR prep you need. The mock simulators are incredibly accurate to the real Prometric test.
The generic timelines and capital adequacy requirements for the KSA market are laid out perfectly. I passed CME-1 without needing any other study materials.
I was looking for something to help me prepare for the Saudi capital market exam and this is exactly it. The questions are well written and the explanations actually make sense. I use it on my phone during lunch breaks and it works perfectly
The flashcards helped me memorize the CMA penalty thresholds and reporting timelines. There are so many small details in the Saudi regulations that are easy to mix up especially the different fines and deadlines for disclosures. Going through the flashcards on my commute made a huge difference and I felt much more confident during the actual exam because of the repetition
I tried studying from the workbook only and it was really hard to stay focused. This platform breaks everything into small pieces and the mock exams show you where you stand. The AI analyzer after each exam is a nice touch too. Would recommend to anyone doing GSCMR
Solid question bank that covers all the tricky parts of the syllabus. The official workbook can be very dry and difficult to get through. Practicing with these mock exams helped me understand how the questions are actually framed in the real test. The explanations after each question are clear and tell you exactly why the other options are wrong which is very helpful for learning
Took the CME-1 and the AI tutor literally explained the capital adequacy ratios better than my corporate trainer did. Kept my study sessions very focused. Recommending this to my team.
Failed first time with 65% using just the workbook. Came back to this 3 weeks later and just redid the mocks on my weak chapters + drilled the flashcards for penalty values I kept mixing up. Passed second go 78%. No extra fees which is amazing because other platforms charge you again. The summeries saved me like 20 hours of rereading the same dense chapters over and over. Genuinley smart prep feels like someone who already passed built this for people who struggle with the material. Also the fact that tricky examiner wordings are flagged seprately is so helpful, those trick questions used to destroy me.
Improved my scores from about 55% to 88% in just 2 weeks. Mocks are perfectly calibrated to the real difficulty level. Elite platform.
Just used the updated 2026 GSCMR material. The new rules on sustainable finance in KSA are already included. Cleared it with 88% yesterday!
That's great to hear. We designed the flashcards specifically for last-minute revision — glad they helped!
Saudi market timelines are important. The cheat sheet for GSCMR is pure gold for the test center. Pass mark achieved easy.
Gscmr stuff is elite. The generic CMA timelines cheat sheet absolutely saved me so much time in the test room. Pass easy.
Saudi market rules are tough but focusing on the CMA timelines here was the key. Result came back: 85% first attempt. Recommend to all my colleagues.
Watching my scores go up on the analytics gave me so much more confidence for the day. Passed first attempt no problem.
Literally sat in the parking lot for 20 mins before my exam just reading the cheat sheet... And like 5 questions were straight from it!! Insane. Saved me big time.
Literally sat in the parking lot for 20 mins reading the cheat sheet... And 3 questions were straight from it!! Saved my life haha. Absoluteley recommend.
The mutual fund and reit rules summaries have literally everything you need. Saved me so much time trying to parse the law.
If you are in Saudi and need to pass this, this is the course. The generic CMA timelines are literal lifesavers for the test.
Finally!! Capital adequacy and licensing rules are actually readable now. Massive relief for my revision. Passed today!
Honestly tried 2 other providers and this is way more user friendly. The AI tutor is scarily good at answering specific regulation questions. Really worth it.
Mandatory takeover rules were a total maze before this. The MTO section here is crystal clear. Really helped focus my revision on the 60% that actually counts toward the pass.
If you want a good role in KSA investment banking you really need this cert. Prep is really good and focuses exactly on the CMA rulebook updates. Finished the exam in 45 mins.
