Saudi to become top private equity market
Tuesday, 06 April. 2010



With steady population growth propelling infrastructure development, Saudi Arabia is fast becoming a big market for private equity and venture capital investors, said experts.But, to fund this growth, infrastructure investments amounting to billions of dollars will be required, said investment specialists in the Mena region.According to estimates, $20 trillion will be spent on infrastructure in the emerging markets within 10 years, and global PE houses will invest a considerable percentage of this amount, they added.

“The attractiveness of the Saudi market to private equity investors has grown sharply in recent years. This has been a function of new private-sector opportunities created by the broad economic diversification and liberalization beyond oil and gas,” said Amr El-Barbary, managing director at Citadel Capital, the leading private equity firm in the Middle East and Africa with investments of $8.3 billion spanning 14 countries and 15 industries.Healthcare in particular will be growing the demand for private equity stakes. The GCC healthcare market is expected to grow by nine per cent annually to reach a value of SR200 billion by 2020.
