CI Capital, a leading diversified financial services group, in partnership with Talaat Moustafa Group, has announced the launch of Awa’ed Real Estate Investment Fund, Egypt’s first and largest institutional real estate investment fund, with a total size of approximately EGP 8 billion.

The fund represents a significant milestone in the evolution of Egypt’s institutional real estate investment market, creating a pioneering investment platform that bridges real estate assets and capital markets while offering investors access to a high-quality institutional investment vehicle.

The fund will focus on managing income-generating commercial real estate assets, while also developing two strategically selected land plots that will later be enhanced and sold to unlock capital appreciation. This structure provides investors with balanced exposure to recurring income streams and long-term value creation.

According to Mahmoud Attallah, Group Executive Vice Chairman and Managing Director of CI Capital Holding, the launch of Awa’ed Fund represents a strategic step toward expanding investment products in the Egyptian market and providing institutional access to real estate assets within a strong governance framework and advanced investment structure.

Hesham Gohar, Group CEO of CI Capital, described the launch as a landmark moment for Egypt’s real estate investment landscape, noting that the partnership combines TMG’s development expertise and extensive real estate portfolio with CI Capital’s investment and financial advisory capabilities.

The fund will be managed by CI Capital’s Private Equity arm, which will oversee asset management and coordinate with service providers to ensure performance and returns meet investors’ expectations. The fund manager has also partnered with The Arab Company for Projects and Urban Development, a subsidiary of Talaat Moustafa Group, to manage the development and sale of acquired real estate assets.

The fund operates under the supervision of the Financial Regulatory Authority and features an innovative self-liquidating investment structure offering semi-annual distributions and attractive risk-adjusted returns.

Investor demand for the fund was exceptionally strong, with the offering fully subscribed within one day of launch, attracting participation from leading banks, insurance companies, and financial institutions.
