For that government has aimed some major goals, for instance, to expand the assets of the public investment fund from USD 159.89 billion in 2016 to USD 1,865.40 billion in 2030 and to raise the proportion of exports based on non-oil sources from 16% in 2016 to 50% in 2030.

Additionally, in 2019, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's (KSA) plan of spending on infrastructure development of USD300 billion, with the increase of 13% over 2018, is still going on. The Saudi Arabian government is dealing with a number of difficulties, particularly in controlling the country's fiscal loans, diversifying its sources of income, and reducing its reliance on oil. As the government works on reducing oil dependency, which is a significant contributor to the nation's GDP, non-oil-based industries have seen an increase in their earnings. Furthermore, infrastructure and transport accounted for around 6.30 percent of KSA's budget, and the country is currently raising its development expenditure.

Moreover, the big budget reveals that KSA anticipates considerable revenue growth in the upcoming years. The National Transformation Program (NTP) 2020, a project launched to build the institutional capacity and competencies required to realize Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, is merely one of the steps done to encourage greater investment in the non-oil economy as a result of falling crude oil prices.
