Shock, Laughter Greet Plan for Saudi Arabia's Record Oil IPO - Bloomberg Business

Shock, Laughter Greet Plan for Saudi Arabia's Record Oil IPO - Bloomberg Business:

"When one financial adviser heard about Saudi Arabia’s plans to list a company larger than the economies of most nations, he had to pull over his car because he was laughing so hard.
Saudi Arabian Oil Co., or Aramco, the world’s largest oil producer, said Friday it’s considering an initial public offering. It confirmed an interview with Deputy Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman published in the Economist Thursday. The news was greeted with incredulity in the financial industry, according to interviews with a half dozen bankers who do business in the Middle East. They asked not to be identified to protect their business interests."
