Saudi Arabia stands in third position among the Arab countries and fourth globally with per countries and fourth globally with per capita share of total energy subsidies of $3,395, followed by Bahrain's at $3,224, the UAE with $3,022.

Meanwhile, according to the International Monetary Fund energy subsidies are projected at $5.3 trillion in 2015, or 6.5 percent of global GDP, according to the study. Most of this arises from countries setting energy taxes below levels that fully reflect the environmental damage associ- ated with energy consumption. Sources pointed out the energy subsi- dies today are much higher than previ- ously expected and that reducing energy subsidies from revenues are expected to reach $2.9 trillion in 2015, or 3.6 percent of global GDP
