\nThe Saudi Monetary Authority (SAMA) is the second largest sovereign wealth fund in the world with $676 billion in assets, according to a report by the Washington-based Sovereign Wealth Fund Institute (SWFI).
\n On October 16, 2013, the total value of global SWF assets crossed the USD 6 trillion mark for the first time, after adding USD 16.1 trillion in assets since the beginning of 2012.
\nThe monetary institution's fund moved up the global list from fourth to second place globally and first in the Arab world, after its assets under management rose in August to $675.9 billion, compared to $532.8 billion in June.
\nThe Kingdom's large sovereign investments are a positive signal for the Saudi economy and encourage the flow of foreign capital to the Kingdom, which brings many economic benefits, increases consumer and investor confidence in the Saudi economy, demonstrates that it is a safe economy even in the case of low oil income and uncertainty, and makes the Kingdom able to use these reserves when needed.
\nThese sovereign cash reserves also indicate the strength of the Saudi economy and the good management of oil revenues and their allocation in an effective economic manner, as part of them are invested inside the Kingdom and finance the general budget, while the surplus part is invested abroad and in government bonds with almost guaranteed returns for their development.
\nAt the same time, these large foreign cash reserves indicate the country's financial solvency and that it is not in need of external borrowing, but is able to participate in local and global economic programs without affecting its financial situation.
