Aramco or Saudi Aramco as it’s officially known, is the most valuable company in the world. It was recently publicly listed — which in theory means that anyone can now own a share of this company.
In 2018 Aramco had revenue of $388 Billion. That’s a number that is hard to compute. At the moment, Aramco is a bit of a profit machine. How it performs in the future is anyone’s guess.
Saudi Arabia decided to list the company in order to build the worlds largest investment fund. This investment fund will fuel the economy of Saudi Arabia for years to come.
So how do you invest in Aramco shares? Well the easiest way to invest is probably through eToro. They were one of the first platforms to announce they would list the stock. Aramco trades on the Saudi stock exchange, so being able to trade it on eToro from anywhere in the world is pretty handy.
eToro lets you invest in partial shares as well. You don’t need to buy a full share like you do on traditional platforms. You can invest with as little as $50. Theoretically this means you could build a diverse portfolio of stocks and ETFs with less capital. And you get access to assets and markets from all over the world. You can invest in shares from Europe, USA, Asia and of course now Aramco in Saudi Arabia.
eToro pays dividends on stocks as well. So it’s not just for trading. You can build and hold a portfolio of stocks over the long term and earn passive dividend income.
