According to financial documents filed on Sunday, the company invested 410 million riyals in Lukoil’s American Depositary Receipts between February and March.
Kingdom Holding did not disclose details of the investments, but the company will look for undervalued assets as many Western countries impose sanctions on Russian companies.
