The company has also built a strong capability in managing global and regional credit and equity portfolios, which have enhanced the diversification and liquidity of Waha Capital’s balance sheet.

Having established an excellent performance track record, the company now offers attractive investment opportunities to third-party investors, through its capital markets funds and its private equity and private debt platforms.

Established in 1997, Waha Capital has been consistently profitable – its investment teams are singularly focused on deploying capital efficiently, where they see and can add value, in order to deliver sustainable and attractive returns to shareholders and investment partners.

Waha Capital also benefits from a roster of prominent local shareholders that includes Mubadala Development Company, and a distinguished board, chaired by Mr. Salem Al Noaimi.

While Waha Capital manages investments globally, the company remains deeply rooted in Abu Dhabi's economy and operates at the centre of influential business networks in the United Arab Emirates and the wider Middle East region. By investing in key growth sectors, the company is a contributor to the ongoing development of a dynamic private sector – an important component of the region's economic diversification plans.
