Abu Dhabi Investment

The Abu Dhabi Investment Company was founded in 1977 by decree of the late H. H Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, ruler of Abu Dhabi and President of the United Arab Emirates, originally to invest on behalf of the Abu Dhabi government. In 2007 the company was given a new mandate, to attract and manage third-party funds, in addition to the investment of government assets. To reflect this strategy, “Invest AD” was adopted as a brand name in mid-2009. Today the company offers its investment expertise to institutional investors. Our clients benefit from access to select opportunities in the Middle East and North Africa, and an approach that blends international best practice and intimate local knowledge. Owned by the Abu Dhabi Investment Council – a strong and supportive parent – Invest AD is closely aligned with the long-term diversification and growth objectives of the Abu Dhabi authorities as clearly expressed in the government’s long-term strategy, the Abu Dhabi 2030 Vision.
