DUBAI, United Arab Emirates /PRNewswire/ -- Pretium, an innovative investment management firm focused on real estate, residential credit and corporate credit with more than $26 billion in assets, has established its first Middle East office in Dubai. Jamal Saab has joined as Managing Director to head and expand Pretium's Middle East presence. Mr. Saab comes to Pretium with over 20 years of experience serving investors in the Middle East.

"We are excited to welcome Jamal to the team, and I am proud he will be representing Pretium in the Middle East," said Don Mullen, CEO and Founder of Pretium.  "Establishing our presence in the Middle East reinforces our commitment to regional clients during a time of impressive strategic growth for the firm."

"I am honored to take on this role and oversee the establishment of our regional headquarters and growth of Pretium in the Middle East," said Mr. Saab.
