EFG Hermes advising on $500mln M&A deal in Saudi Arabia, more in pipeline: exec | ZAWYA MENA Edition:

Egypt's EFG Hermes is working on a $500 million merger and acquisition in Saudi Arabia and expects more deals to come out of the kingdom this year, especially from the private sector, its head of investment banking told Reuters.

Saudi Arabia has made attracting greater foreign investment a key part of its economic Vision 2030 plan as it tries to diversify the economy away from its reliance on oil.

The kingdom's impending inclusion in the FTSE Russell emerging markets index this month is expected to draw billions of dollars of foreign fund flows.
