The move had been viewed as an attempt by Mohammed bin Salman \u2014 known as MbS \u2014 to consolidate power, removing any sources of potential challenge in advance of his eventual accession to the Saudi throne. But news of the settlements that are reportedly being negotiated with detainees suggests that he is just as concerned about the country\u2019s finances.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6764\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6764\" style=\"width: 2011px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6764\" src=\"http:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rtx3hzpm.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2011\" height=\"1509\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rtx3hzpm.jpg 2011w, https:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rtx3hzpm-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rtx3hzpm-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rtx3hzpm-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2011px) 100vw, 2011px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6764\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Masayoshi_Son\">Masayoshi Son<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/SoftBank_Group\">SoftBank Group<\/a> Corp.

Source: Reuters.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The fall in the price of oil \u2014 the kingdom\u2019s main source of revenue \u2014 has led to a huge budget deficit, which stood at $79 billion in 2016.\u00a0 The government has had to use foreign reserves to help cover the revenue shortfall, with the former shrinking by about a third over the last three years. The recession has forced MbS to rein back public spending, alarming cosseted Saudis long accustomed to cradle-to-grave subsidies.<\/p>\n<p>The Crown Prince has staked his reputation on the success of an ambitious economic transformation plan, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vision2030.gov.sa\/en\">Vision 2030<\/a>, to wean the country off its dependence on oil, but he needs to fund planned reforms and projects. He was banking on a part-floatation of the national oil company <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Saudi_Aramco\">Aramco<\/a>, which appears to have been postponed for at least a year. The ruthless purge and financial strong-arming could now deter the very western investors and regulators needed to move forward with the sell-off.<\/p>\n<p>Reports suggest the authorities are looking to acquire up to $300 billion from the wealthy detainees, many of them confined in Riyadh\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Ritz-Carlton_Hotel_Company\">Ritz-Carlton<\/a> hotel. However, they could end up being disappointed: few Saudi princes and businessmen have billions of dollars\u2019 worth of unencumbered assets; while some of the country\u2019s biggest companies are burdened with huge debts and the royals\u2019 actual wealth is commonly overestimated.<\/p>\n<p>Many princes spend much of the money they receive through stipends or ministerial salaries on sustaining lavish lifestyles. When these funds dry up, typically through demotions or the death of an influential relative, some encounter serious liquidity issues. What assets they have are largely illiquid and highly leveraged.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6763\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6763\" style=\"width: 799px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6763\" src=\"http:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/saudi-arabia-makes-further-anti-graft-arrests-sources.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"799\" height=\"537\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/saudi-arabia-makes-further-anti-graft-arrests-sources.jpg 799w, https:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/saudi-arabia-makes-further-anti-graft-arrests-sources-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anticorr.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/saudi-arabia-makes-further-anti-graft-arrests-sources-768x516.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 799px) 100vw, 799px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6763\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kingdom_Centre\">Kingdom Centre Tower<\/a> is seen in Riyadh.

For the Riyadh authorities, liquidating these assets could prove challenging as they tend to be held in complex structures involving trustees and other proxies \u2014 some of whom have power of attorney.<\/p>\n<p>The detainees will likely be required to instruct their external advisors to transfer the funds to Saudi Arabia, but the latter will want irrefutable proof that the authorisations have not been obtained under duress. Such evidence, it seems, will be hard to acquire. The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/BBC\">BBC<\/a> has reported that the suspects have access to a \u201chotline\u201d, enabling them to call legal advisors, family members and managers of their businesses. But we understand that their activities have been severely restricted. Our sources say that detainees are not allowed to contact each other, and at least one confined to his room with no access to communications.<\/p>\n<p>So, in all likelihood, MbS will struggle to generate the money he needs. Worse still for him, his actions could have deleterious consequences for the economy. While the acquisition of assets and cash is likely to play well with ordinary Saudis weary of corruption amongst the royals and the business elite, it may unnerve already jittery foreign investors whose engagement is critical to the Crown Prince\u2019s economic plans. Though allies have sought to portray the detentions as an anti-graft campaign aimed at cleaning up the corporate landscape, its apparently arbitrary nature and disregard for property rights and due process will worry the investment community.<\/p>\n<p>Critics of MbS will see the rounding up of royals and businessmen together with the financial settlements that are reportedly being negotiated as the latest in a series of ill-judged, impulsive actions, which have included a disastrous war in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yemen\">Yemen<\/a> and a fruitless blockade of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Qatar\">Qatar<\/a>.
