Private Investment Firm Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates ·Founded 2023

Overview

Lunate Capital is an Abu Dhabi-based, partner-led, independent global alternative investment manager with close to 200 employees and $110 billion in assets under management. The firm primarily invests across the entire private markets spectrum, including buyouts, growth equity, early and late-stage venture capital, private credit, real assets, and public equities and public credit. Lunate aims to be one of the world’s leading private markets solutions providers through separately managed accounts (SMAs) and multi-asset class funds, seeking to generate best-in-class risk-adjusted returns for its clients. In August 2025, Lunate announced a strategic long-term partnership with Brevan Howard, a leading hedge fund manager, to establish an investment platform domiciled in the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). This partnership marked Lunate's expansion into hedge funds, broadening its client offerings across alternatives. The platform plans to launch with an initial long-term commitment of $2 billion from Lunate, comprising a unique suite of newly created funds exclusive to the partnership. Lunate's recent investments include a 40% stake in ADNOC's oil pipeline infrastructure assets and a minority stake in Brevan Howard. These strategic moves reflect Lunate's commitment to diversifying its portfolio and enhancing its presence in global markets. The firm's approach combines disciplined investment strategies with customized solutions to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns for its clients.
