Kingdom Holding Company (KHC), chaired by Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, and Caisse des Depots International Capital (CDC International Capital — CDCIC) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to establish an investment vehicle jointly managed by CDCIC and KHC seeking to develop Saudi projects and ventures that will benefit from the involvement of French companies, technologies and know-how.
The KHC-CDCIC platform will help advance bilateral economic cooperation and trade, and facilitate access to long-term capital in both countries by companies engaged in economic cooperation between Saudi Arabia and France. To advance this partnership, a working group was formed, co-chaired by Prince Alwaleed and Laurent Vigier, CEO of CDCIC.
This partnership will seek attractive investments across a broad range of sectors and asset classes, with strong focus on opportunities promoting economic cooperation between the two countries and contributing to the growth and prosperity of both economies.
