Yazeed bin Abdulrahman Al-Humaid was appointed Vice Chairman of ACWA Power on April 8, 2026, replacing Raad bin Omar Al-Saadi in the role while maintaining his tenure through the end of the current board term. Al-Humaid brings a distinctive blend of regulatory expertise and portfolio management experience from his tenure at Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund and earlier roles in capital market governance.
Al-Humaid holds a Bachelor's degree in Accounting from King Saud University and is certified in executive management programs from London Business School. His career spans in excess of 18 years in financial and management fields, beginning with PriceWaterhouseCoopers and House of National Consulting from 2004 to 2008. He then joined the Capital Market Authority (CMA) until 2015, where he headed the Mergers and Acquisitions team and was seconded to work at the Malaysian Securities Commission and the regulatory body of mergers and acquisitions in the United Kingdom.
