HONG KONG: In an effort to capitalise on the post-COVID boom in the region’s real estate and other industrial sectors, Gaw Capital, a multi-asset investment management based in Hong Kong, aims to increase investments in the Middle East, according to its chief executive.
According to Christina Gaw, managing principle and global head of capital markets at Gaw, the company is considering real estate and other ventures in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates because of the high demand for real assets among their populations.
In May, Gaw paid over $150 million for a residential block in Abu Dhabi, and in November, he inked an agreement with Expo City Dubai and Lingang Group to investigate the possibility of developing the Expo Life Science Park in Dubai.
According to Gaw, whose two older brothers formed the company in 2005, the firm, which managed $34.4 billion in assets at the end of 2024, anticipates closing another purchase in the region in the second half of the year. Gaw’s interest in the Middle East coincides with a post-pandemic real estate boom driven by foreign investment and commercial demand.
