His Excellency Majid A. Alkassabi, Saudi Arabia's Minister of Commerce, today at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos said the Kingdom stands to benefit from ongoing shifts in global supply chains.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, speaking in a session titled 'Many Shapes of Trade', HE commented: 'Trade today is definitely shifting from fair trade to a managed and rule-driven trade model. For us in Saudi Arabia, we have a strategic location, we have a lot of resources, we could become a bridge economy. We could become a connector economy where we can connect with Africa, with Europe, with Asia, becoming a logistic hub.'
