“The annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank Group provide an excellent opportunity to strengthen economic and trade relations. We are eager to expand our trade connections to help achieve the bank’s objectives of enhancing the non-oil national economy and improving the competitiveness of non-oil Saudi exports in various global markets. This will open new opportunities for local exporters across different sectors, thereby increasing trade between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the rest of the world.”

The Saudi EXIM chief also engaged in extensive meetings with leaders and senior executives from government and international institutions focused on developing international trade, investment, and financial institutions.

These discussions aim to foster the growth and sustainability of international trade and explore partnerships that can help improve access for non-oil Saudi exports to global markets.

Saudi EXIM is a development bank affiliated with the National Development Fund. It plays a crucial role in diversifying Saudi Arabia’s economic base by enhancing the efficiency of the export system for non-oil national products and services. This is achieved by bridging financing gaps and reducing export risks, contributing to the growth of the non-oil national economy in line with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030.
