The Saudi economy in 2013
Macroeconomic reportWe expect another year of solid economic performance in 2013. Non-oil growth will be strong and inflation should slightly ease. Lower oil production will cause total real economic growth to slow, and combined with lower oil prices, will reduce the budget and current account surpluses. High government spending will remain the engine of the non-oil economy.
