Saudi Aramco shares trade under ticker symbol 2222 on the Saudi Exchange.
The Saudi Arabian Oil Company, commonly known as Saudi Aramco, listed its shares on the Saudi Stock Exchange, or Tadawul, in December 2019. Its trading symbol is 2222, a short numeric identifier used for the company’s ordinary shares. The listing was one of the most closely watched public offerings in financial history and made Aramco one of the world’s largest publicly traded companies by market capitalization.
Ticker symbols vary by country. U.S. companies commonly use letter-based symbols such as AAPL or MSFT, while the Saudi Exchange uses numeric codes for listed securities. That difference can make Aramco’s symbol easy to confuse with a year, an oil-field number, or another company’s code.
Saudi Aramco remains closely associated with Saudi Arabia’s oil industry, but the company also operates in refining, chemicals, distribution, and other energy-related businesses. Its public listing represented only part of the company’s total ownership, with the Saudi government retaining the dominant stake.
