Other US executives who will travel to Riyadh include Blackstone Inc's Steve Schwarzman, Franklin Templeton’s Jenny Johnson, and Alphabet Inc's Ruth Porat. They’re slated slated to speak at the Saudi-US Investment Forum on May 13. The event is being held on the day Trump arrives in Saudi Arabia, where he’s expected to meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
BlackRock Inc’s Chief Executive Officer Larry Fink, Citigroup Inc’s Jane Fraser and top bosses of American tech firms will visit Saudi Arabia along with Donald Trump next week.
Trump, who’s also going to Qatar and the United Arab Emirates on his first scheduled trip abroad since returning to power, is keen for the oil- and gas-rich Gulf states to ramp up investments in the US and buy more of its goods.
