Saudi Crown Prince's Dream City Neom Faces Financial Crisis

The ambitious project of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman to build the futuristic city of Neom is facing a financial crisis, with costs skyrocketing to 8.8 trillion euros.

Overview of Neom Project:

  • Dream of a floating business district, 170-kilometer-long skyscrapers, and a ski resort without snow.
  • Original goal to reduce Saudi Arabia's oil dependency and boost tourism.
  • Initial investment of over 500 billion euros from government and investors.

Financial Mismanagement:

Analysis reveals costs far exceeding estimates, with over 46 billion euros spent already.

  • Initial errors in cost projections and revenue expectations.
  • Allegations of intentional cost manipulation and involvement of McKinsey & Company.

Future Challenges and Costs:

  • Estimated completion cost of 8.8 trillion euros by 2080.
  • Privacy concerns for residents due to extensive surveillance systems.
  • Challenges with 'zero-gravity' architecture and artificial ski slopes raising costs.

Despite the financial setbacks, Salman aims to make Neom a hypermodern city, albeit with privacy implications for its inhabitants.
