Saudi Arabia in discussions to sell Aramco stake in bid to raise funds for Vision 2030

摘要

Saudi Arabia’s crown prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) on Tuesday evening told Saudi television that the kingdom is in discussions to sell a 1% stake in Saudi Aramco to a “leading global energy company”. MBS’ comments come only weeks after Aramco sold a 49% stake in its pipeline subsidiary and fits in with the government’s aim of raising capital to help diversify the kingdom's oil-dependent economy.
