Saudi Arabia's finance minister said on Wednesday the kingdom is changing the way it provides assistance to allies, shifting from previously giving direct grants and deposits unconditionally.
The kingdom, the world's top oil exporter and an Arab powerhouse, was encouraging countries in the region to enact economic reforms, Mohammed al-Jadaan said at the World Economic Forum in Davos.
"We are taxing our people, we are expecting also others to do the same, to do their efforts. We want to help but we want you also to do your part." Earlier this month, Saudi state media reported the kingdom could boost its investments in cash-strapped Pakistan to $10 billion, from $1 billion announced in August, as well as increase the ceiling on deposits into the Pakistan central bank to $5 billion.
