Saudi economy, a third larger

Before

In 2016, Saudi Arabia's real GDP stood at SAR 3.73 trillion — heavily concentrated in oil revenues.

Initiative

Vision 2030 diversification drove growth in non-oil sectors: tourism, entertainment, manufacturing, technology, mining, and digital services.

Outcome

Real GDP reached SAR 5 trillion in 2025 — a roughly one-third expansion of the economy in less than a decade.

For citizens

A larger economy creates more jobs, more opportunities, more services. The diversification means future growth no longer depends on a single commodity.
