The launches come at a time when Dubai and its DIFC centre has been pushing itself forward as a fund management hub, in some ways mirroring the way that it has sought to attract family offices.

Dubai International Financial Centre-domiciled funds.

Those funds include the four Signature CIO Feeder Funds, Aditum’s in-house managed Global Fixed Maturity Fund 2028 and the flagship DIFC-domiciled fund, Four Quadrant Dynamic Allocation Fund OEIC Limited. 

The organisation manages about $175 million in the DIFC and in total it has more than $7.2 billion of assets under management, as of 30 October 2024.

Dubai has been stepping up efforts to advance its standing as a funds management centre, as reported here. This move also mirrors efforts the jurisdiction is making to attract family offices.
