Analysis
Holding at 3.75, unchanged since 1986, with SAMA intervening automatically to maintain the peg. Unlike most MENA currencies, the riyal does not respond to oil price fluctuations, Saudi fiscal data, or Fed rate decisions. SAMA's repo rate at 5.5% mirrors the Fed funds rate precisely. The peg is supported by oil export revenues and $440 billion in reserves. Vision 2030 diversification is gradually reducing fiscal oil-dependency. No shift to the peg is expected.
