Building on 25 years of expertise, Rasmala continues to drive innovation and value for regional investors
6 February 2025, Dubai, UAE – Rasmala Investment Bank Limited (“Rasmala”), a leading provider of Shariah-compliant alternative investments, has entered 2025 with strong momentum, deploying nearly USD 300 million across global infrastructure, technology-driven private equity and real estate, focusing on logistics and net lease assets in Europe and the United States.
With the growing demand for investor capital from the GCC, Rasmala connects the region with strategic, high-quality global opportunities, reinforcing the UAE’s position as a leading financial hub. This is reflected by Rasmala’s 25-year track record of identifying income-generating assets aligned with macroeconomic trends and regional investor priorities.
“As interest rates ease and inflation remains a key consideration, Rasmala is leveraging its extensive partner network and deep market expertise to capitalise on investment opportunities for Gulf-based investors, deploying capital across strategic global sectors,” said Zak Hydari, Rasmala Group CEO. “A strong start to 2025 reaffirms our commitment to delivering innovative, Shariah-compliant investment solutions that combine resilience with growth. We continue to focus on high-quality real assets that provide stable, inflation-protected income and long-term value creation amid evolving global market conditions.”
Real estate, particularly logistics, net lease assets, and UK residential, remains a key focus area for Rasmala, offering stable, long-term cash flows backed by high-credit tenants and strong market fundamentals, including e-commerce growth and supply chain demand. In parallel, Rasmala continues to expand its presence in infrastructure and technology-driven private equity, targeting sectors that benefit from digitalisation, energy transition, and demographic shifts.
As Rasmala marks 25 years of investment excellence, the firm remains dedicated to unlocking value for investors through disciplined strategies, beneficial partnerships, and financial solutions with foresight. Due to a robust investment pipeline for 2025, Rasmala is well-positioned to capitalise on shifting market conditions and drive long-term growth in Shariah-compliant alternative investments, aligned with the UAE’s vision for economic diversification and sustainable financial sector growth.
