At the Dubai Private Capital Summit on 15 September, held at The Lana and organised by CapLink Group, our Founder & Chairman Ahmad Saidali joined a panel of regional investment leaders on “Capital Allocation in the Middle East: How Regional Investors Are Partnering with Global Managers.”
The panel was moderated by Axe Ali, Global Head of Fund Advisory and Private Markets, EY-Parthenon. Ahmad was joined by H.E. Maher Al Kaabi, Advisor to the Group Chairman and Independent Board Member, Alserkal Group; Amine Bentaleb, Managing Partner, Patrimium MFO; Maryam AlAli, Head of Fund Investments, Mubadala Capital; and Dr. Sami Kamel, CEO, Dutco Cleantech, Dutco Group.
The discussion reflected themes central to our work: how global capital assesses regional opportunities, how local expertise translates into disciplined execution, and how Dubai real estate fits within a long term portfolio strategy.
“Regional investors now partner with global managers on their own terms. They bring capital and local judgement, and they expect discipline in return. Dubai real estate earns its place in that partnership when it is selected with the same rigour as any other allocation.”
As Dubai strengthens its position as an international centre for private capital, real estate remains an essential link between global investment objectives and the region’s long term growth.
We were pleased to contribute our perspective and to exchange views with fellow industry leaders.
Our thanks to Caplink Group for convening a summit of this calibre.
