Saudi Arabia’s Derayah Financial Co. surged in its debut after a 1.5 billion riyal ($400 million) initial public offering, a sign that appetite for Riyadh listings continues unabated.

Shares in the online brokerage jumped to as much as 39 riyals apiece on Monday, up 30% from the offer price of 30 riyals per share. That’s the maximum first day increase permitted on the Saudi exchange.
