Aramco IPO - The Start Of The Saudi Economy Overhaul?

Saudi Aramco announced the final price of its IPO at 32 riyals per share (around USD8.50)] valuing the world’s most profitable company at 1.7 trillion dollars. It raised $25.6 billion as is now the world’s biggest IPO. This deal has been synonymous with Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman and his plans to reshape the nation, but at 1.5% of the firm, is it enough to get his ambitious plan to overhaul the economy back on track considering that he once wanted $100 billion?
