"Saudi Arabia Tops Global Mining Investment Rankings: A New Era of Mineral Prosperity"

Summary:
In a groundbreaking development, the latest annual assessment by MineHutte and Mining Journal Intelligence has recognized Saudi Arabia as the top global jurisdiction for mining investment.

The World Risk Report 2023, which includes MineHutte Risk Ratings, has singled out Saudi Arabia as a standout performer, both regionally and globally.

The Kingdom's impressive rise in mining investment de-risking scores from 2018 to 2023 has placed it among the top 10 countries with the least legal and financial risks.

This significant improvement reflects an investor's reduced risk of losing the economic benefit of a mineral discovery, lower corporate taxation, and robust GDP growth.

This recognition comes after comprehensive sector reforms aimed at attracting mining and mineral investment, initiated since the launch of Saudi Arabia’s mining and mineral strategy in 2018.
