Soussa shared a similar concern, saying that the Kingdom will need to see \u201csome fiscal adjustment\u201d as well as \u201ca more aggressive re-prioritization\u201d regarding projects.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>More borrowing on the table?<\/strong> Unless spending cuts are made, the Kingdom could borrow an additional USD 16.5 bn before the year ends, Tim Callen, a visiting scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington, told Bloomberg. Riyadh would also need to consider alternatives to the current volatile international markets to bridge the funding gap, including cutting spending, raising taxes, or selling stakes in its assets, Soussa told CNBC.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>REMEMBER- <\/strong>The borrowing plan for FY 2025 outlined a requirement for some SAR 139 bn (USD 37 bn) in new public debt.

The decline in domestic sales is attributed to rising competition, backlash against CEO Elon Musk's political involvement, and delays in the redesigned Model Y.
