Macroeconomic Update - Pick-up in non-oil activity
Macroeconomic ReportOur economic forecast for the Kingdom has been revised down wholly on the account of developments related to the oil market. Whilst we previously expected overall growth to hit 2 percent in 2019, a downward revision in oil sector GDP means that we now see growth at around 1.6 percent.
