UK - 3i invests in Arabian Gulf

Ithmar Fund II focuses on growth capital and buyout investments in various attractive sectors of the high growth six GCC markets: United Arab Emirates (UAE), Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman and Saudi Arabia.

The strategic alliance between 3i and Ithmar Capital is the first example of a foreign private equity firm’s participation in a GCC (Gulf Co-operation Council) fund to date. It also builds on 3i’s strategy to expand its international network into high growth territories, adding value to its $10bn portfolio and to gain exposure to new markets.
