DUBAI/RIYADH — US President Donald Trump is expected to attend Saudi Arabia’s Future Investment Initiative conference in Miami, marking his second consecutive appearance at the event since returning to the White House, people familiar with the matter say.
Trump is expected to attend a dinner on the first day hosted by Yasir Al-Rumayyan, governor of Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund PIF, two people say, asking not to be identified as they were not authorized to speak publicly. The event takes place from March 26-29.
The FII Institute, the Saudi government, and the White House do not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Trump’s engagement with the FII platform underscores the importance his administration places on Gulf economic partnerships.
Saudi Arabia and the US finalized a series of investment and defense agreements during the crown prince’s meeting with Trump in November, with Riyadh boosting its commitment to invest in the United States to $1 trillion — expanding significantly from the $600 billion in deals outlined during Trump’s visit to the kingdom in May.
