Mubadala Capital Seeks to Double Third-Party Funds to $6 Billion
(Bloomberg) –Mubadala Capital, the investment arm of the Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund, is seeking to double the assets it manages for third-party investors.
“One of the things you don’t often hear in the same sentence is sovereign wealth funds managing third-party capital,” Mubadala Investment Co.’s deputy Chief Executive Officer Waleed Al Muhairi said at a conference in the U.A.E. capital. “We are raising our third fund as Mubadala Capital. We have 17 LPs, all of them are institutions.”
The unit, which currently manages $25 billion of its own and external capital, plans to boost that amount to $40 billion “over the medium-term horizon,” Al Muhairi said. Of that, 15% — or about $6 billion — is expected to come from other institutional investors, almost doubling the $3.4 billion of third-party capital it currently manages.
