Estimates from the Saudi General Authority for Statistics show that the Kingdom's real GDP grew by 3.9 percent in the second quarter of 2025.
The growth was driven by growth across all economic activities, with non-oil activities growing by 4.7 percent. Oil activities also recorded a 3.8 percent increase, while government activities grew by 0.6 percent year-on-year.
Standard & Poor's Global Ratings expects the Kingdom's GDP to grow by 3.5 percent from 2025 to 2028, with an average fiscal deficit of 4.4 percent of GDP during the same period, driven by spending related to Vision 2030 projects.
