Ajyad Capital, a leading investment management firm licensed by the Central Bank of Bahrain, has announced a strategic partnership with global prime brokerage EXANTE. The collaboration will integrate EXANTE’s extensive market access into Ajyad Capital’s upcoming digital investment platform, providing GCC investors with a seamless gateway to a wide range of international financial instruments.
Bridging Regional and Global Markets
The partnership is designed to break down traditional barriers for regional investors, offering them simplified and confident access to global investment opportunities. “This strategic partnership with EXANTE represents a transformative step in breaking down traditional barriers between regional and global markets,” said Suhail Hajee, CEO of Ajyad Capital. Ashraf Bajsair, Head of Regional Sales for the Middle East at EXANTE, added, “Our partnership with Ajyad Capital bridges that gap. Together, we are creating a one-stop-solution for Shari’ah-compliant investing that empowers investors to diversify, grow, and manage their wealth with confidence.”
A Shari’ah-Compliant Digital Gateway
A key aspect of the new platform is its adherence to the principles of Islamic finance. Ajyad Capital is positioning itself as a trusted, digitally-driven gateway for GCC investors seeking to diversify their portfolios into global markets through a Shari’ah-compliant framework. This focus on combining WealthTech innovation with Islamic finance principles aims to serve a significant and growing segment of the regional investment community. The full scope of the digital investment platform is expected to be unveiled later this year.
Expanding the Investment Universe
Through this collaboration, clients of Ajyad Capital will gain access to EXANTE’s vast network, which includes more than 50 global markets, eight asset classes, and over one million financial instruments. This significantly broadens the universe of investment opportunities available to regional investors, allowing for greater portfolio diversification and exposure to international growth sectors, all managed through a single, integrated platform.
