Mubadala Capital CEO and managing director Hani Barhoush said: “Mubadala Capital has a proven track record of sourcing proprietary investment opportunities and generating attractive risk-adjusted returns, while building trusted long-term partnerships with leading institutional investors.

“By operating as a wholly owned asset, we will be able to accelerate the growth of Mubadala Capital and more rigorously pursue our highly focused investment strategies, while continuing to invest both through our own balance sheet and on behalf of our external investors.”

In August this year, Blackrock made a $1.2bn investment in Mubadala Capital’s private equity business.

This deal also included the acquisition of certain assets from Mubadala’s debut private-equity fund.

The same month, UAE-based investment advisory platform Sarwa raised $15m in a Series B financing round to expand its team size and roll out several new products to address all aspects of personal finance.

In May, McFaddens & Co expanded its global footprint by launching its multi-family office operations in UAE.
