Investindustrial, a premier European investment group with a global reach, has established a new office in ADGM, the capital’s leading international financial center, after receiving In-Principle Approval (IPA) from the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) of ADGM.
With more than $15.7 billion (€15 billion) in raised capital, Investindustrial specializes in acquiring majority or controlling stakes in high-quality mid-market companies across Southern Europe. The firm focuses on building long-term partnerships and unlocking growth potential in family-owned businesses by creating international growth platforms.
Through its new Abu Dhabi office, Investindustrial takes a significant step in further supporting the global expansion of its portfolio companies, while also contributing to fostering innovation, economic development, and growth within the UAE and the wider Middle Eastern region.
The strategic location of ADGM offers Investindustrial a platform to accelerate the development of its portfolio companies in the region, amidst rapid regional growth in high value-added sectors of the economy.
Andrea C. Bonomi, Chairman of Investindustrial, commented that, “We are proud to announce our presence in ADGM as we continue to support the growth of both our portfolio companies and the region more broadly. The Middle East holds strategic importance for Investindustrial. Opening an office in Abu Dhabi enables us to be closer to our partners and explore potential investment opportunities for our platform companies.”
“We are delighted to welcome Investindustrial to ADGM. Their presence at ADGM underscores the strategic value our financial center offers as a gateway to the wider region. By aligning with regional objectives and leveraging ADGM’s robust infrastructure, Investindustrial is well-positioned to enhance economic development, drive innovation, and support the growth of key industries across the region,” said Arvind Ramamurthy, Chief of Market Development at ADGM.
