About

When King Abdullah died in 2015 and power consolidated around Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Al-Rumayyan was appointed chairman of PIF and placed on the board of Saudi Aramco. After Bin Salman's 2017 purge of competing Saudi political elites, Al-Rumayyan and his associates assisted Bin Salman in consolidating his authority, while the sovereign fund acquired assets seized from prominent Saudi figures.
