Description

The escalation of geopolitical tensions following the joint US-Israel strikes on Iran has led to a more prolonged disruption across the Gulf than previously assumed. We now expect the conflict to last around two months, compared with our earlier assumption of a two-week disruption. While Saudi Arabia remains insulated from direct damage, the longer duration of the conflict is tightening regional trade conditions and weighing on sentiment. External sectors, particularly tourism and logistics, are likely to soften, although domestic fundamentals remain intact.
