Saudi Arabia

Strategically located at the crossroads of three continents - Asia, Africa and Europe, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) in home to one of the world’s most distinct commercial and trading environments, rendering it a compelling location for long term investment. A self-developed powerhouse in its own right, KSA serves as the centre of a dynamically growing region home to 400 million consumers. Statistics reveal that the country has become Middle East-North Africa’s (MENA) top destination for foreign trade, inviting a comparably stable and attractive market for foreign investors.

The government of Saudi Arabia has historically recognized the role and benefits of foreign investors serve to the local economy, and offer several noteworthy incentives for investment and trade. These include a pro-inward investment, pro-trade, business-friendly, open and progressive economic and political policies, as well as a convenient access to Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). Foreign investors in the Kingdom can own 100% of their investment projects, which may largely benefit from non-imposition on personal income tax. In recent years, Saudi Arabia has sought to join the World Trade Organization, demonstrating the country’s willingness to increase market access to foreign goods and services.

Saudi Arabia’s economy continues to expand at a rapid pace and the scope of its investments continue to remain an integral part of the Saudi Arabian government boarder program. This allows for the liberalisation of the country’s trade and investment regimes whilst laying down the platform for foreign investment and trade on a global scale.
