“Through this investment, we are looking to participate in the growth of an institutional-grade fund manager with a clear vision for attracting global capital into the region’s most promising markets,” said ADCP’s Maxime Franzetti. “We believe that Abu Dhabi, particularly the ADGM, are a natural home for fund and asset managers focused on the MEASA region.”
