We operate as a single-family office investing globally from our base in the Middle East. Our firm was established in 2004, building on a rich business family legacy spanning four generations.
We are an active investor in private and public companies, real estate, and alternative investments. Our global public equity portfolio is self-managed and focused on North American and European developed markets.
Kingdom Investments is privately-owned and manages perpetual family capital. We seek to invest alongside passionate founders, aligned managers and family businesses with a similar long-term mindset as ours.
Kingdom Investments was founded with the goal of preserving and growing our shareholder capital.
We seek first to protect our capital, which represents many years of ancestral sacrifices; wealth is hard to accumulate and losses interrupt the compounding of our capital.
We aim to grow our capital by investing alongside honest and capable operators in businesses with attractive long-term fundamentals.
We are drawn to unique, dominant companies operating in markets with high barriers to entry.
As our company is the product of a family business, we naturally grativate towards other family businesses, founder-led companies, and businesses in which management hold material equity stakes.
Consistent with our goals and objectives, we avoid leverage, derivatives, complex financial products, and short selling.
Kingdom Investments was founded on the premise that independent thought, disciplined decisions, and a long-term mindset will deliver superior returns to our shareholders. We are active in public equity markets, which we believe allow us to participate in the success of leading global businesses, often at significant discounts to private market values.
