Our Capabilities
Our platform spans the full spectrum of investment — from public equities and fixed income/sukuk to growth debt, and early-stage tech. We bring clarity, counsel, and conviction to every stage of the capital lifecycle, helping partners unlock uncommon growth.
We build concentrated positions where we hold deep conviction, guided by fundamental analysis and close access to management. Independent of benchmarks or quarterly cycles, we focus on long-term structural drivers that compound value, investing as active partners in public markets with a private equity mindset.
As a management-owned firm, we invest alongside our clients, ensuring aligned incentives and freedom from conflicts. Our absolute-return approach uncovers opportunities across size, sector, and geography, strengthened by deep MENA roots and global experience that combine local insight with disciplined execution.

We manage USD-denominated sukuk strategies through a disciplined process that balances yield with rigorous risk assessment, bringing transparency and institutional standards to a growing market. Specialising in government and corporate bonds across MENA, we combine local knowledge with international best practice to uncover opportunities often overlooked by global allocators. Our platform extends to both local and hard currency emerging market debt, giving investors diversified exposure with a balanced global outlook.
ESG factors are embedded in our philosophy, strengthening risk management and long-term returns. Through separately managed accounts and bespoke solutions, we offer flexibility tailored to institutional mandates, while our role as a UN PRI signatory since 2021 reflects the responsibility and credibility that investors demand in fixed income.
