The Ministry of Investment said Saudi Arabia’s leading position in projected economic growth among G20 countries in 2027, at 7.9% based on International Monetary Fund (IMF) data for October 2026, reflects the strength and resilience of the Kingdom’s economy and opens broader prospects for investment and growth.
In a post on the social media platform X, the ministry said this outlook is supported by strong private-sector momentum and expanding non-oil activities, paving the way toward a more diversified, sustainable, and investment-attractive economy.
