Saudi Arabia’s state-owned oil company, Saudi Aramco, has reduced its massive dividend payout for 2025. The new dividend payment of $85 billion marks a significant decrease from the previous year’s $107.1 billion.
The move comes as profit fell at Saudi Aramco due to struggling oil prices. Despite being one of the world’s largest and most profitable oil companies, Saudi Aramco has been impacted by the decline in global crude oil prices.
This reduction in dividend payout is a reflection of the changing market conditions and Saudi Aramco’s efforts to maintain its financial stability amid the fluctuating oil prices.
