ABU DHABI, Dec. 4 (Xinhua) -- Abu Dhabi-based Aldar Properties and Mubadala Capital on Thursday announced the launch of Aldar Capital, a new investment management platform designed to connect global institutional investors with real estate and infrastructure opportunities in the UAE and wider Gulf region.
According to a joint statement, Aldar Capital will be headquartered in the Abu Dhabi Global Market, the emirate's international financial centre, and offer professionally managed funds to global investors, including sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, insurance companies and family offices. The platform's first fund is set to launch in 2026 with a target size of 1 billion U.S. dollars.
The companies said Aldar Capital integrates Aldar's real estate development and asset-management expertise with Mubadala Capital's fund-management capabilities and global investor network, creating a platform that links regional opportunities with international capital.
Aldar Group CEO Talal Al Dhiyebi said the launch of Aldar Capital will transform Aldar from a regional real estate leader into a manager of global capital.
Mubadala Capital CEO Hani Barhoush said global investors are seeking exposure to real assets but have had limited access to "institutional-grade opportunities" in the region, and that Aldar Capital aims to fill that gap via a transparent, globally-standard platform. ■
