Vision2030
Empowering a Nation with a Global Impact
Being one of the top 15 economies in the world!
Being one of the top 15 economies in the world!
The Public Investment Fund (PIF) was founded with the purpose “Elevate the Kingdom, Uplift the World!” And we believe in this statement. As the official investment arm of the Kingdom, the program aims, as one of Vision2030’s Realization Programs, to diversify the Kingdom’s economy away from oil while also supporting the world’s most impactful solutions. 30% of the fund’s Assets Under Management are currently in international firms.
As the biggest sovereign investment fund in the world, the program truly aims at uplifting the whole world by sustainably investing in 13 strategic sectors.
Increasing Direct Foreign Investment contribution to GDP from 3.8% to 5.7%
Increasing Direct Foreign Investment contribution to GDP from 3.8% to 5.7%
To achieve this goal, the government has implemented significant changes to the company incorporation process. The aim is to rank among the top 20 governments in the world in government effectiveness and top 5 in e-government services. The Ministry of Investment and other government institutions work together to facilitate the establishment of foreign companies as quickly as possible.
To support the growth of foreign investment, the government has also invested heavily in infrastructure and digitization. As a result, the Kingdom offers highly competitive energy rates and a resilient supply chain that is difficult to match globally. The Private Investment Fund (PIF) and the wider private sector are seen as crucial partners in driving the success of the Kingdom’s economy.

The Quality of Life Program is also one of the Realization Programs for Vision2030. It aims at uplifting the quality of life for the individuals and families through the creation of the appropriate environment and availing the options that promote the contribution of the citizens, residents and visitors in the cultural, entertaining, sportive and touristic activities in a way that increases the quality of life, generates job opportunities, diversifies the economy, and puts 3 Saudi cities in the top 100 cities in the world on the different indices measuring the Quality of Life.
The program focuses on 2 major objectives:
- Increasing the standard of living in Saudi cities through; developing the cities’ infrastructure, offering comprehensive services, and changing behaviors.
- Developing and enriching the lifestyle through; creating the necessary infrastructures for a more vivid and active lifestyle, availing enough high quality options and encouraging the contribution of the inhabitants in the policy making, city development and a diverse and continued flow of activities and events.
Education is the first priority
Education is the first priority
The Vision is built on 3 major pillars; the first one is a Vibrant Society. The cornerstone to this society is a citizen who is globally competitive and responsibly enabled. That is why the Human Capability Development Program was introduced with 3 strategic pillars; developing a resilient educational base, preparing for future local and global labor markets, and providing lifelong learning opportunities. The program covers all phases of the human capability development journey from early childhood to lifelong learning.
Saudi Arabia is also one of the highest countries in spending on education per capita. The education budget for 2023 is 189bn SAR; which is equivalent to 16.9% of the total budget of the year.
Reach Carbon Neutrality by 2060
Reach Carbon Neutrality by 2060
Sustainability has been at the heart of Vision2030 since its inception. Saudi Arabia is now ushering in a new era as the Kingdom aims to reach Net Zero by 2060. Our planet’s sustainability is taken seriously by the government and the Saudi people. That is why the PIF has recently acquired 9.5% stake in Skyborn Renewables and has previously acquired shares at AquaPower to focus the Kingdom’s consumption of power on renewable energy by 2030. That comes in hand with a mandate in waste management to increase landfill diversion rate to 82% by 2035.
The Kingdom is also committed to the goals of sustainability in its new and ambitious projects, such as NEOM and The Line city and the restoration of biodiversity in many parts of the Kingdom including the Red Sea Project and the ancient cultural heritage site AlUla. Saudi Arabia is undergoing a radical transformation like no other.
