What are the Major Challenges in the Saudi Arabia Car Rental & Leasing Market?

Saudization is posing as a major challenge for international car rental companies and car dealers. The saudization supports the employment of Saudi nationals into car rental companies and discourages foreign employees. This ban led to the shutdown of many small car rental companies in the market. This law results into low profit for the companies as they need to pay high salaries to Saudi’s workers. The car rental companies are also facing major challenge from the government initiative of developing public transport in Saudi Arabia. SAPTCO has been established in order to improve the public modes of transport. This creates a threat for car rental companies as individual would start shifting towards public mode of transport as they would be available at cheaper rates. Increased premium by insurance company on rental cars is also creating hindrance in the growth of Saudi Arabia car rental industry.

Many insurance companies now refuse to provide insurance coverage to rental companies due to which there is a situation of monopoly where the prices are in the hands of few insurance companies.
