Aramco is launching its worldwide roadshow this week for a pending bond offering that is expected to be at least $10 billion in size. The company is meeting with investors in Europe, Asia and the United States all week.The company’s debut international bond offering comes amid ongoing efforts by Saudi Arabia to diversify its economy, which is heavily dependent on oil revenues.
Aramco hired investment bank Lazard as financial adviser on the bond sale. It still intends to sell stock through an initial public offering in 2021, after scrapping a planned IPO last year. According to one of the two sources, El-Erian, one of the most influential economists and investors in the world, took part in discussions with investment bankers, regarding Aramco’s bond offering.
