Saudi Crown Prince announces nearly $1 trillion investment into US
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman confirmed plans to boost U.S. investments near $1 trillion focusing on technology, AI, and rare materials, surpassing an earlier $600 billion pledge.
- On Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2025, Mohammed bin Salman announced Saudi investment would rise to almost $1 trillion during an Oval Office meeting with President Donald Trump.
- Seeking to diversify beyond oil, the crown prince aims to secure large-scale partnerships supporting Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, as the kingdom stopped being a bottomless source of outward investment a few years ago.
- Both leaders said the money targets technology, AI and magnet projects, with President Donald Trump thanking Mohammed bin Salman for agreeing to invest $600 billion into the United States, potentially reaching $1 trillion.
- The trip marks his first U.S. visit since 2018, when Jamal Khashoggi was killed, and included plans to deepen economic and defence ties with F-35 fighter jets and civil nuclear cooperation.
- Saudi state funds are prioritizing domestic projects while banks and asset managers expand Riyadh operations and invest in infrastructure and startups, complicating outward investment forecasts.
