TOPIC
 

"Investment Landscape in the Middle East and Implication for Korean Investors" 

 

Dear AMCHAM Members,

Gulf Capital is a leading alternative asset management company focusing primarily on late-stage control buy-outs, growth capital, real estate development and credit business in the Middle East. The Firm was set up with a clear focus: to launch the most dynamic and sophisticated alternative asset management company in the Arab region. Gulf Capital's employees, directors and 250 shareholders all strive towards building a world-class regional institution. Gulf Capital's Private Equity strategy is to acquire strategic stakes in highly profitable and fast growing companies in select industries in the Gulf region and, through active ownership, accelerate their growth and profitability ahead of an eventual exit. Gulf Capital is an active investor with a particular focus on operational improvements and regional or product expansion.

Dr. Karim El Solh (CEO and Managing Partner) and Muhannad Qubbaj (Managing Director) will share their perspectives on the investment opportunities for Korean investors in the dynamic Gulf region. Additionally, they will share their experiences of building a world-class regional private equity firm and potential learnings for Korean GPs with regional aspirations

Best regards,

AMCHAM Private Equity Committee Co-Chairs
James Ahn / Charles (Yun-Sik) Chang / Jay Kim
