Egyptian fintech powerhouse MNT-Halan has partnered with global asset management firm Azimut to launch the Halan AZ Real Estate Fund. This new initiative aims to democratize access to Egypt’s lucrative real estate market for both retail and institutional investors through a seamless digital platform.
Democratizing Property Investment
The fund is designed to lower the barrier to entry for property investment, a sector often perceived as requiring significant capital. By leveraging MNT-Halan’s extensive fintech infrastructure, the fund provides an accessible and affordable avenue for investors to gain exposure to one of Egypt’s most resilient economic sectors.
“As part of our mission to democratize financial services, we continue to expand our investment offerings. The Halan AZ Real Estate Fund is another step in that journey, giving people an affordable way to invest in one of Egypt’s most attractive and resilient sectors,” said Mounir Nakhla, Founder and CEO of MNT-Halan and Chairman of the Fund.
A Regulated Digital-First Approach
Fully licensed and approved by Egypt’s Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA), the Halan AZ Real Estate Fund is structured as a multi-tranche vehicle. Each tranche will offer professionally managed exposure to high-quality real estate opportunities across commercial, hospitality, administrative, and residential assets, catering to a diverse range of investor profiles from first-timers to seasoned professionals. Subscriptions are expected to launch soon digitally through leading platforms.
Synergizing Fintech and Asset Management
The collaboration combines Azimut’s deep investment expertise with MNT-Halan’s technological prowess and wide market reach. This synergy is central to creating a new, accessible asset class for Egyptians, allowing more people to participate in the country’s real estate growth.
“By combining our asset management and product development expertise with MNT-Halan’s technology and reach, we’re making a new asset class accessible for more Egyptians to participate in the country’s real estate prosperity story,” stated Ahmed Abou Elsaad, CEO of Azimut Egypt.
