Saudi Records Highest Liquidity in Its History at SAR 3 Trillion

The amount of money circulating in the Saudi economy hit a historic high by the end of February 2025, reaching over SAR 3 trillion for the first time. That’s an increase of about SAR 277 billion compared to February 2024 — a growth rate of 10.1%, according to the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA).

Compared to just a month earlier, liquidity also went up by more than SAR 67 billion, a 2.3% jump from January.

This rise in liquidity—which refers to the money available in cash or in bank accounts—is seen as a positive sign for the economy, helping to support trade, investment, and overall growth.

Most of the money in circulation came from demand deposits, such as current accounts, which made up nearly half of the total. Savings and fixed-term deposits followed, with foreign currency deposits, banking transactions, and cash in people’s hands making up the rest.

The numbers reflect strong momentum in the Saudi economy and align with ongoing efforts to boost financial stability and development across the country.
