"An Omani sovereign wealth fund has signed an understanding with Iran’s biggest auto maker, Iran Khodro Industrial Group, to study a proposal for a $200 million auto plant in Oman, a fund official said on Wednesday. The memorandum of understanding is one of the first signed between a major Iranian company and a Gulf Arab state since international sanctions against Iran were lifted earlier this month. Traditionally, Oman has had closer ties to Iran than its Arab neighbours." (January 27, 2016).
