BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, Citigroup's Jane Fraser, and senior US tech company executives will be visiting Saudi Arabia next week with US President Donald Trump. This is Trump's first scheduled visit since taking office as president, and he will also visit Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. He hoped that the Gulf countries, which are rich in oil and gas resources, would increase their investment in the US and buy more American products. Other US business executives who will be visiting Riyadh include Steve Schwartzman of Blackstone Inc., Jenny Johnson of Franklin Templeton, and Ruth Borat of Alphabet Inc. They are scheduled to speak at the Saudi-US Investment Forum on May 13. The conference will cover topics such as energy, artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, and finance. David Sachs, head of AI and cryptocurrency at the White House, will attend. Local celebrities include Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser, and Saudi Minister of Energy, Investment, and Finance. Trump is seeking an additional $1 trillion in investment and trade from Saudi Arabia, and his expectations for the UAE are similar.
