11 Vision 2030: rewarding investment opportunities For foreign investors, a rich and varied investment opportunity. Target Sector Key Factors Human Capital Development Most vital enabler of a robust and innovative private sector Vocational training, centers of excellence SME s Promotion SME contribution to grow to 35% from 20% of GDP growth Easier access to funding, to rise to 20% from 5% of total bank credit. Localized defense and local comfort industries KSA is a major military spender but only 2% of this spending is in-kingdom. Aim to localize over 50% of military spending by Aramco s IKTVA Program 70% local content by Mining Sector Potential Sector output to reach SR97 bn by 2020, adding 90,000 jobs. Intensified exploration mineral resources. Renewable energy market development Target of 9.5 gigawatt/hour of renewable energy from 75gw/h by 2020, but target evolving. Privatization of health care Corporatization of the health care sector by transforming responsibility to network of public companies who would compete against each other and the private sector. Govt. to maintain regulatory/supervisory role. 11
12 Overcoming Vision 2030 implementation challenges: or Vision without execution is hallucination (Thomas Edison) (A) Administrative Structure Update approval mechanism for funding programs FINANCE COMMITTEE COMMUNICATION TEAM Verify publicly communicated messages ADAA NATIONAL CENTRE FOR PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT THE DELIVERY UNIT Designing, implementing & achieving initiatives Promoting transparency Follow up on progress towards implementing programs, Measure progress regulatory STRATEGIC COMMITTEE PROJECT MANAGEMENT OFFICE Monitoring and follow up Adherence to project management methodologies MINISTRY OF ECONOMY AND PLANNING Provides all necessary information to stakeholders. Harmonize the sector and regional plans 12
13 (B) RESOLUTION MECHANISM: A bottoms up approach LEVEL FOUR Issues are referred to the Council of Economic and Development Affairs for resolution LEVEL THREE Strategic Committee shall at its own discretion decide on the matter that falls under its jurisdiction or refer to the Council of Economic and Development Affairs for resolution. LEVEL TWO LEVEL ONE Strategic Management Office shall be asked to examine the matter and obtain all necessary information. If impossible to address concern then raised to Strategic Committee for resolution. Issues addressed within each executive body in charge of implementing the programs under direct supervision of relevant minister. If issue does not fall under jurisdiction of a specific body, referred to a higher level.
14 THE HEART OF THE MATTER: WEANING AWAY FROM OIL DEPENDENCY AND EMPOWERING PRIVATE-PUBLIC PARTNERSHIP KSA can no longer rely on oil revenue and public spending for growth. Changing global energy market (renewables, environmental concerns fossil fuel), and demographic transition adding to employment pressure. Productivity led economic transformation could enable KSA to increase GDP and create new jobs from key sectors. All stakeholders private sector, foreign investors, households will need to be involved. Requires fundamental changes to current business as usual model: State needs to embrace a new delivery philosophy Businesses need to adapt to a more competitive, cost conscious environment, Individual Saudi citizens will have to take more personal accountability.
15 Vision 2030: doing business with both East and West Visits by Deputy Crown Prince and key Ministers have resulted in tangible cooperation roadmaps. COUNTRY KEY AGREEMENTS USA Dow Chemical Company became first company to receive a trading license allowing 100% ownership in trading sector. 3M and Pfizer granted licenses Talks with Apple to enter KSA Microsoft International to assist with technology transfer Six Flags entertainment amusement part agreement China Huawei first Chinese company licensed to invest in ITC. Chem China agreement with Saudi National Program for promotion of industrial clusters, and renewable energy. Yanchuan Yoching Investment Co. and Gwanzu Industrial Development Group MOU s with Aramco and RCJY for investment in Jazan Economic City. SABIC and SNCG to build a coal-to-chemicals complex PIF discussion to invest in Ali Baba Group. Japan MOU signed to assist with SME development. Agreement to supply oil for Okinawa strategic oil reserves. 15
16 SAUDI ARABIA: RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES Saudi Arabia is at a crossroads and the current leadership fully understands the need for change as the status quo is unsustainable; ie oil revenue expenditures = surplus (or deficits) Hard look at current projects to reduce costs and implement best practices ( $ 20bn rumored of project savings to assess meeting national employment and localization content ) Vision 2030 I committed to three basic principles: transparency, accountability and consistency for it to succeed A NEW MINDSET IS NOW PALPABLE To this end, the building blocs have been set up: Substantial government reshuffle and ministerial amalgamation has taken place (Min. of Energy, Industry and Mineral Resources) No changes expected to currency peg policies, with monetary stability and sufficient liquidity in the banking sector Raising international borrowing on favorable terms ($17.5 Bn 5,10 and 30 year bonds -largest sovereign emerging market offering ) Attracting foreign capital by amending participation rules for foreign qualified investors by the Capital Market Authority to buy shares directly in Saudi IPO s ; considering dual listing for Saudi companies; preparing for inclusion in the MSCI Emerging Market Index.
17 CONCLUSION KSA well placed to service the domestic economy and broader GCC and provides unrivalled comparative advantages and investment opportunities as it refocuses on becoming a manufacturing and trading hub for global markets. Saudi Arabia will continue to provide access to infra-structure funding (SIDF), abundant supply of energy, and remains committed to maintaining its position as the world s top oil exporter with focus across the whole hydrocarbon value chain. Vision 2030 will provide opportunities to leverage on local supply chain capabilities across many industries. Hard decisions are being made, subsidies rationalized, VAT and fees introduced Irrespective whether oil prices are high or low, a strategic decison has been made to pursue the necessary difficult transformation. THE CHALLENGE HAS BEEN TAKEN UP
