Al-Sudairi, who succeeds Mohammed El-Kuwaiz as CMA chairman, expressed his gratitude to King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for the royal order appointing him to the position. He emphasized his commitment to fulfilling the leadership's aspirations and serving the Kingdom, particularly in the context of Saudi Vision 2030, which aims to diversify the Saudi economy. Al-Sudairi's extensive experience in financial markets, investment research, and government work positions him well to lead the CMA as Saudi Arabia seeks to deepen its capital markets and attract greater foreign investment.",
