Saudi Arabia expected to issue $12.6bln in bonds until year-end, JPM says
Saudi Arabia is expected to issue $12.6 billion in bonds for the remainder of the year, JPMorgan said on Tuesday, as the kingdom resorts to the debt markets amid huge investments to overhaul its economy and lower oil prices. The Gulf country, which forecasts a budget deficit of $26.93 billion this year, is seeking funds to invest in new industries and wean its economy away from oil under its Vision 2030 plan, investing in sectors such as tourism, manufacturing and technology. Reuters reported in April that Saudi Arabia, with its wealth linked inextricably to oil revenue, faces mounting pressure to raise debt or cut spending after a plunge in crude prices. The kingdom enjoys a low debt-to-GDP ratio and confidence from lenders, and was among the largest emerging market debt issuers in 2024. It has already issued $14.4 billion so far this year, JPM said in a research note, the largest emerging market issuer in the first five months of 2025, braving market volatility ignited by U.S. President Donald Trump's trade policies. "An uncertain global macro environment and higher borrowing costs have remained deterrents for new issue activity over the past three months" out of emerging markets, JPM said. The bank said that "supply activity could pick up in June, provided market conditions remain stable," warning, however, that volatility remained a key risk. Companies in Saudi Arabia, including state oil giant Aramco and sovereign wealth fund PIF, have also been tapping the debt markets. Saudi Aramco last week raised $5 billion from bonds and published a new prospectus for Islamic bonds, signalling a new issuance could be on the horizon. JPM said on Tuesday that other emerging markets countries with "the largest issuance expectations from now until year-end" included neighbouring Kuwait, forecasting $8 billion in debt issuance by year-end. The small Gulf state, also the Middle East's fourth-largest oil producer, earlier this year issued a long-awaited law to regulate public borrowing as the country prepares for a return to international debt markets after eight years.

Abdul Latif Jameel and Joby agree to explore opportunities for electric aircraft in Saudi Arabia
Potential delivery of up to 200 electric aircraft and related services valued at approximately $1 billion over coming years Grounded in Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, new MOU to support socio-economic growth in the Kingdom Santa Cruz, CA and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia — Abdul Latif Jameel, an 80 year-old network of diversified businesses, and Joby Aviation, Inc. (NYSE: JOBY), a company developing electric air taxis for commercial passenger service, are announcing the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore opportunities to establish a distribution agreement in Saudi Arabia for Joby's electric aircraft. This announcement builds upon the renewed economic partnership between the U.S. administration and the Saudi government towards shared innovation and transportation growth. Potential delivery of up to 200 Joby aircraft and related services valued at approximately $1 billion are expected by the businesses over the coming years. In the long-term, Abdul Latif Jameel and Joby also see potential revenue opportunities across the Middle East. Abdul Latif Jameel and Joby share complementary long-term visions to revolutionize the future of mobility through transportation services that are cleaner, safer, more efficient and more affordable, helping to improve passenger experiences while simultaneously protecting the planet. In addition, the Jameel family invested in Joby's Series C funding round, led by Toyota Motor Corporation in 2020. The direct sale of aircraft through businesses such as Abdul Latif Jameel form one pillar of Joby's commercialization strategy. Additionally, Joby will directly own and operate its aircraft and services in certain markets, like the United States, and partner for similar operations in other markets, such as Japan. ' This collaboration is about bringing America's leadership in electric air mobility to the world,' said JoeBen Bevirt, Founder and CEO of Joby Aviation. ' Together with Abdul Latif Jameel, we're not just imagining a cleaner, safer, more efficient future—we're building it. And there is no better partner to help unlock the extraordinary opportunity for air travel in the region.' Hassan Jameel, Vice Chairman, Saudi Arabia, Abdul Latif Jameel, stated: 'Saudi Arabia is transitioning toward a new era of mobility - one that is on-demand, shared, connected, and sustainable. eVTOL is an exciting and important component of this. We are looking forward to collaborating with Joby to support the transformation of the Kingdom's mobility sector. This collaboration also comes as Abdul Latif Jameel Motors marks 70 years of distributing Toyota in Saudi Arabia — a strategic investor in Joby.' Joby's collaboration with Abdul Latif Jameel will initially focus on Saudi Arabia, where Abdul Latif Jameel has an extensive presence, network and deep operational experience. The two businesses will work together to explore distribution and sales collaborations, the launch of local air taxi services, including the establishment of aftermarket services such as MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul), and pilot training. Joby's piloted, all-electric aircraft is designed to carry four passengers at speeds of up to 200 mph, offering high-speed mobility with a fraction of the noise produced by helicopters and zero operating emissions. The business plans to carry its first passengers in Dubai in 2026. Given the importance of mobility to Saudi Arabia's urban transformation, the collaboration aims to drive socio-economic growth in the Kingdom and create employment opportunities for Saudi nationals, in line with Vision 2030.
