Sadi Hassouneh, COO of Mondial, will lead the new wealth firm and will focus on the Middle East’s Arabic-speaking population.

The source reported that the new firm aims to offer independent Islamic investment solutions and fund alternatives.

Sean Kelleher, a board member and active adviser to Thqa, said: "Thqa’s investment approach will be based on protecting and growing its client’s capital over the medium-to-long-term and seeks to avoid the boom-and-bust results associated with specific asset class risk.

"We know that Thqa will need to prove itself by managing investor expectations into growing capital steadily through diversified and risk-adjusted asset allocation strategies. At a time when UAE property and MENA equities are on a surge this will be difficult."
