Saudi Arabia plans to hold a US-Saudi investment summit in Washington on November 19 alongside Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's visit to meet President Donald Trump, according to a source familiar with the planning. The event, co-hosted by the Saudi Ministry of Investment and the US-Saudi Business Council, is not part of the crown prince's official schedule.
