Saudi investors have a limited chance to buy a stake at troubled BP Plc, said John Sfakianakis, Chief Economist at Banque Saudi Fransi.

Saudi newspaper Al-Eqtisadiya said on July 7 that a group of Saudi investors were eying a 10 percent to 15 percent stake in the company without mentioning where it got the information. Sfakianakis said such an acquisition was unlikely.
