Featured Country: Saudi Arabia: The oil-rich kingdom of Saudi Arabia was established in 1932 by Abdul-Aziz bin Saud, whose descendants rule the country today.

The kingdom is the leading oil producer in the world and is a key member in the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. The government sees overdependence on oil as a potential long-term problem, and is reinvesting oil revenues into new areas of the economy, and welcoming in foreign direct investment. Saudi Arabia is currently ranked as the 20th most promising market on MSU-CIBER's Market Potential Index.
