Post by : Bianca Haleem

Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), the leading financial hub in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia (MEASA), has welcomed CapitaLand Investment (CLI) as it opens its new office in Dubai. This expansion marks CLI’s strategic entry into the Gulf’s fast-growing investment market.

Headquartered in Singapore and listed on its stock exchange, CLI operates in over 270 cities across 45 countries. The new Dubai office will strengthen CLI’s ability to serve institutional partners and capture opportunities in high-growth markets with long-term potential. This move builds on CLI’s nearly two decades of experience in the region through its lodging business, The Ascott Limited.

Salmaan Jaffery, Chief Business Development Officer at DIFC Authority, said, “We are pleased to welcome CapitaLand Investment as it sets up its Dubai office to serve institutional partners in the UAE and the wider Gulf. CLI’s global presence and expertise across multiple real asset classes make it well positioned to leverage DIFC’s platform.”

John Woo, Senior Executive Officer of CapitaLand (DIFC) Limited, added, “Our presence in DIFC is a strategic step in our Gulf expansion. DIFC’s strong governance and regulatory framework support our commitment to long-term, trusted partnerships. We aim to connect investors with quality real assets and deliver lasting value.”

Through its Dubai office, CLI will provide investment advisory services in the UAE, leveraging global experience across logistics, industrial, lodging, living, office, and data center assets. This expansion highlights CLI’s dedication to delivering sustainable growth and high-quality returns for its investors.
