Dunamis Capital (Dubai) Limited provides investment banking and private wealth management services to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in selected emerging markets and the related investment communities.   Towards the end of 2010, Dunamis Capital successfully secured its Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) licence and will shortly move to new offices in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).

Alternative Investments

Dunamis Capital will later in 2011 look to establish its Asia/Middle East Growth Company Fund.  Focused on all sectors, the fund reflects the interests of the Group - companies operating in emerging markets with fast growth potential.

David Sumner, Group CEO of Dunamis Capital, said: "There is considerable potential for growth in the Middle East, Africa and Asia.  The quality of businesses we come across is high and there is a major opportunity for stakeholders to benefit from strong demographics, compelling market drivers and sustainable returns on investment.   We believe that these emerging markets are where the next generation of commercial opportunities lies.  In addition, UK and US PLCs see these as key expansion destinations as well as areas to access capital.

I am delighted to welcome Dunamis Capital to DIFC and look forward to seeing the business grow."
