SAUDI ARABIA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Saudi Arabia has an oil-based economy with strong government controls
over major economic activities. It possesses about one-fifth of the world's
proven petroleum reserves, ranks as the largest exporter of petroleum, and
plays a leading role in OPEC. The petroleum sector accounts for roughly 80% of
budget revenues, 45% of GDP, and 90% of export earnings. Saudi Arabia is
encouraging the growth of the private sector in order to diversify its economy
and to employ more Saudi nationals. Diversification efforts are focusing on
power generation, telecommunications, natural gas exploration, and
petrochemical sectors. Almost 6 million foreign workers play an important role
in the Saudi economy, particularly in the oil and service sectors, while Riyadh
is struggling to reduce unemployment among its own nationals. Saudi officials
are particularly focused on employing its large youth population, which
generally lacks the education and technical skills the private sector needs.
Riyadh has substantially boosted spending on job training and education, most
recently with the opening of the King Abdallah University of Science and
Technology - Saudi Arabia''s first co-educational university. As part of its
effort to attract foreign investment, Saudi Arabia acceded to the WTO in
December 2005 after many years of negotiations. The government has begun
establishing six "economic cities" in different regions of the
country to promote foreign investment and plans to spend $373 billion between
2010 and 2014 on social development and infrastructure projects to advance
Saudi Arabia''s economic development.
