Housing Ministry Offers Over 21,000 Investment Opportunities, Contracts Exceeding $3.35bn in 2025
RIYADH — Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Municipalities and Housing has announced the offering of more than 21,000 investment opportunities through its municipal financial portal “Furas” during 2025, alongside the signing of contracts valued at over SR12.6 billion ($3.35 billion).
The initiative forms part of the ministry’s approved framework to regulate and stimulate investment in the municipal sector, enabling greater private-sector participation in urban development across the Kingdom.
According to the ministry, the investment opportunities span multiple sectors, including the development of municipal assets and service facilities, all offered in line with approved regulatory frameworks. The centralized approach allows investors to review available prospects and apply through clear, standardized procedures.
Contracts signed via the Furas portal are part of a structured process aimed at activating municipal assets, formalizing contractual relationships, and enhancing operational efficiency across cities.
A notable portion of the agreements focused on public infrastructure, with more than 185 contracts signed specifically for municipal parks. These projects are designed to expand private investment in public green spaces, improve facilities and services, and raise the efficiency of operations and maintenance — while maintaining parks as accessible public assets.
The ministry emphasized that this approach supports improved visitor experiences and ensures the long-term sustainability of municipal facilities without compromising their open and community-oriented nature.
Officials highlighted that the Furas portal plays a central role in regulating municipal-sector investments by unifying offering procedures, enhancing transparency, and organizing the full investment cycle. This contributes to more effective municipal asset management and greater confidence among investors.
The platform is also undergoing continuous development as part of the ministry’s broader institutional and digital transformation strategy. Enhancements aim to simplify access to opportunities, streamline offering and contracting processes, and ensure full compliance with applicable regulations.
The Ministry of Municipalities and Housing confirmed that the outcomes achieved through Furas align with its regulatory mandate and support the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030, particularly in areas related to urban organization, sustainable development, and private-sector empowerment.
