Hillhouse Investment Launches New Office in Abu Dhabi

Hillhouse Investment Launches New Office in Abu Dhabi

Post by : Badri Ariffin

Abu Dhabi, UAE – Hillhouse Investment Management, a prominent global alternative asset manager, has inaugurated its office at the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). The firm has secured a Category 3C license from the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) to enhance its investment capabilities within the UAE and throughout the Gulf region.

The establishment of this office represents Hillhouse’s long-term vision for the area, reflecting a strong belief in Abu Dhabi’s developing financial landscape. This move will bolster the firm’s ability to identify investment opportunities, negotiate transactions, and partner with local stakeholders.

Hillhouse has already made a notable impression in the UAE by investing strategically in various companies, including Virtuzone and Clara under its business services platform Ascentium, as well as initiatives in educational real estate like Hartland International School and North London Collegiate School via its real assets investment arm, Rava Partners.

Ahmed Jasim Al Zaabi, Chairman of ADGM, stated, “Hillhouse’s choice to set up a regional office at ADGM enhances Abu Dhabi’s reputation as a global financial center and a preferred hub for international enterprises.”

Since its launch in 2015, ADGM has developed into a premier global financial hub, linking investors with regional investment prospects. The stable economic environment, robust regulatory framework, and strategic location of Abu Dhabi continue to draw global investments seeking sustainable growth.

Adam Hornung, Co-Chief Operating Officer at Hillhouse Investment, emphasized, “Our Abu Dhabi office will enhance collaboration with investors, businesses, and government entities within the region. We believe in Abu Dhabi’s potential as a key financial and investment center and anticipate broadening our reach with local expertise.”

This launch is a vital component of Hillhouse’s strategy to fortify its presence in the UAE and the broader Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), promoting sustainable development across various sectors.
