Issued by Ministry of Investment (misa.gov.sa)
A partner may not, without the approval of the other partners, engage for his
own account or for the account of others in any activity similar to that of the
company, nor may he be a partner, manager, or board member in a competing
company or a controlling owner of interests or shares in another company
engaged in the same activity. If the partner fails to comply with such provision,
the company may petition the competent judicial authority to deem the activities
carried out for his own account as having been carried out for the company’s
account, and the company may also seek compensation from him.
