    [RIYADH] Saudi Arabia's central bank is monitoring banking indicators on a daily basis and is not seeing any impact on liquidity from oil giant Aramco's initial public offering (IPO), its governor said on Sunday.

    Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority governor Ahmed al-Kholifey told Reuters on the sidelines of a conference that he had no concerns about liquidity due to the size of Aramco's IPO.

    "We are monitoring all indicators on a daily basis and if there is any squeeze on liquidity, definitely we'll be injecting liquidity but so far ... everything is assuring," he said.
