Saudi Arabia Country Analysis: 2012-2017 An Evaluation of Political, Social, Economic and Business Risk

Lucintel, September 2012, Pages: 54

Lucintel's research on Saudi Arabia provides a wide array of analytical inputs on the country's performance and briefly describes the political, social, economic, and business risks associated with the kingdom. Saudi Arabia's economy, which has demonstrated good growth in recent years, is expected to reach US $754.7 billion by 2017.

Lucintel, a leading global management consulting and market research firm, has conducted a competitive analysis on different aspects of the country and presents its findings in “Saudi Arabia Country Analysis: 2012-2017 An Evaluation of Political, Social, Economic, and Business Risk.” The report provides a holistic view of the country’s economic climate from current and future perspectives.

Lucintel analyzes the various challenges faced by Saudi Arabia, which is witnessing a risk of increasing unemployment and income disparities as well as low R&D spending. Future political transitions are likely to be troublesome. This poses a threat to the stability of Saudi Arabia because the long-occupied ministerial positions of the princes and their patronage networks filter down throughout society. Although there are huge opportunities for doing business in the country, not every company is able to profit from them.

Saudi Arabia is the fastest-growing, largest economy in the Middle East and it belongs to the high-income group with highest oil revenue. The manufacturing sector and the service sector are the two major contributors to Saudi Arabia’s GDP. The industrial sector is the major source of income for the economy.

In this study, Lucintel reviews the trend of GDP, quarterly trend, sectoral contribution, growth volatility, inflation rate, income, and international trade structure of the country. The report helps to identify issues that affect the country's performance through the prism of current strengths, challenges, future prospects, and risks.
