Saudi Arabia's G20 challenge: Investing in human rights

The author of this article contends that Saudi Arabia will have no choice but to comply with human rights standards to attract foreign investments. 

Investors are shying away from countries which are notorious for human rights abuses. They are doing so because consumers have become more aware of human rights issues and the attendant social opprobrium that accompanies such awareness. This state of affairs will get heightened in the near future when developing technologies such as bigdata, IOT, AI and blockchain together makes provenance of goods coming from human rights offenders much easier and faster to track.
