Hedge Fund Melqart Plans Dubai Expansion Amid Growing Influx of Global Financial Firms
Dubai, UAE – Global hedge fund Melqart is preparing to establish operations in Dubai, joining a rapidly expanding list of international financial firms choosing the emirate as their regional and global base.
The move highlights Dubai’s rising status as a leading hub for alternative investments, asset management, and hedge fund activity. Industry experts note that favorable regulations, tax efficiency, and a pro-business environment continue to attract global capital managers seeking stability and access to emerging markets.
Melqart’s planned expansion is expected to strengthen its presence across the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia, leveraging Dubai’s strategic geographic position and world-class financial infrastructure. The emirate’s well-established ecosystem—supported by international banks, legal firms, and investment advisory services—has made it particularly attractive to hedge funds and private equity players.
Over the past few years, Dubai has witnessed a steady influx of financial institutions relocating or opening new offices, driven by regulatory clarity, political stability, and a growing pool of global talent. Analysts say Melqart’s entry further reinforces investor confidence in the city’s long-term financial vision.
With increasing demand for sophisticated investment strategies and alternative assets in the region, Melqart’s expansion is expected to contribute to Dubai’s ambition of becoming one of the world’s top financial centers.
