Saudi Arabia’s PIF sovereign wealth fund has signed memorandums of understanding (MoUs) with five major Chinese banks and China’s export and credit insurance agency in laying the basis for a project of up to $50bn to involve debt and equity transactions.
The project would consist of deals addressing “areas such as two-way capital flows through both debt and equity”, PIF (the Public Investment Fund) said in a statement.
PIF’s MoU counterparties are the Agricultural Bank of China (ABC), Bank of China (BoC), China Construction Bank (CCB), Export-Import Bank of China (CEXIM), the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) and China Export & Credit Insurance Corporation (Sinosure).
China is Saudi Arabia’s biggest trading partner and crude oil customer, according to Saudi-based Gulf Research Center.
