This development will cost the government of Saudi Arabia, to update the laws and regulations of the financial sector. The lessons of financial crises around the world should be consider when move step further to achieve the various type of investments on the financial sector not just the oil, and enhanced the strong economy of the country.

The last solution the Saudi’s government establish independent entity to control and supervising the commercial banks like the UK when established the Financial Services Authorities then the transitions to divide the FSA into two bodies. This approach will grant the new entity the full authority to do their job with possibility to develop the organisation from time to time according to the necessity.
