A flavour of major economic opportunities and risks highlighted in the PhaseZero Saudi Arabia report:
  • Private real estate investments in Saudi Arabia will reach an estimated $150.0 billion by 2012, according to industry experts. North Riyadh in particular, has been earmarked as the rapidly growing and newest 'real estate investment hub', with property trade in the region reaching as much as $533.3 million in 2009 alone.
  • Saudi Arabia is targeting $100.0 billion of investment in port, airport, rail, road and logistics centre projects over the next decade in a push to make the Kingdom one of the world's leading transport and logistics hubs by 2020. The Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority (SAGIA) has identified priority investment opportunities in those sectors.
  • Saudi Arabia is one of the world's top military spenders according to a report released in 2009. The report, issued by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), stated that Saudi Arabia spent $32.0 billion on arms in 2008, making the Kingdom the ninth largest military spender in the world.
  • In March 2010, Saudi Arabia suspended GlaxoSmithKline's diabetes drug Avandia for six months, arguing that potential heart risks outweigh its benefits. The Saudi move follows a highly critical report on the drug from US Senators the previous month which suggested Glaxo knew of possible heart attack risks associated with Avandia years before the issue became public.
