RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s HALA Capital is ready to double down on three of the Kingdom’s most strategic sectors as it prepares to deploy new investment structures and expand across fintech, artificial intelligence and logistics.
With a newly granted license from the Capital Market Authority, the firm aims to position itself at the center of a rapidly evolving venture and mid-market landscape that is drawing increasing attention from global investors.
In an interview with Arab News, Ali Abussaud, founder and CEO of HALA Capital, said the milestone reflects the firm’s readiness to scale its role in solving some of the region’s most persistent investment gaps.
The CMA license represents an expansion of HALA Capital’s capabilities and long-term mission.
Abussaud describes it as the realization of an ambition that once felt remote, saying it reflects accumulated knowledge, market experience and clarity on “what kind of gaps in the market — and also what kind of problems — we are going to end up solving.”
