Mogadishu, Somalia – High-ranking officials from Somalia and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia convened to explore avenues for strengthening investment relations and fostering deeper economic cooperation between the two nations. The crucial meeting, held in Mogadishu, signifies a growing mutual interest in leveraging economic synergies for shared prosperity.

The discussions brought together Mr. Mohamed Dubo, Director of the Investment Promotion Office (SOMINVEST) within Somalia’s Ministry of Planning, Investment and Economic Development, and His Excellency Ambassador Ahmed bin Mohammed Al-Mawlid, the esteemed Ambassador of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to Somalia. Their dialogue centered on strategic points aimed at enhancing bilateral cooperation, with a particular focus on accelerating economic development within Somalia and facilitating direct investment from Saudi Arabia.

During the meeting, Ambassador Al-Mawlid conveyed the increasing enthusiasm among Saudi companies regarding Somalia’s burgeoning investment markets. He highlighted the significant potential that Somali sectors offer to Saudi investors, ranging from agriculture and livestock to infrastructure and energy. The Ambassador also emphasized the vital need for establishing a streamlined and efficient system that would enable Saudi companies to operate smoothly and effectively within Somalia, ensuring a conducive environment for foreign direct investment.

Director Mohamed Dubo, representing Somalia’s commitment to attracting foreign capital, articulated the various opportunities available in the country and reaffirmed the government’s dedication to creating a secure and inviting investment climate. He elaborated on the reforms and initiatives being undertaken by the Somali government to ease business operations, protect investments, and encourage international partnerships. The discussions explored mechanisms to remove potential impediments and create a fertile ground for Saudi capital to contribute meaningfully to Somalia’s economic revival.

This high-level engagement reflects the deepening relationship between Somalia and Saudi Arabia, moving beyond traditional diplomatic ties to robust economic partnerships. Both sides expressed optimism about the future trajectory of their collaboration, anticipating that strengthened investment links will bring substantial benefits in terms of job creation, technological transfer, and overall economic diversification for Somalia. The dialogue sets a positive precedent for future cooperative ventures, affirming a shared vision for growth and stability in the region.
