Arcapita Bank B.S.C.

Arcapita Bank B.S.C. is a Bahrain-based alternative investment firm that makes Sharia-compliant private equity and real estate investments. In private equity, it focuses on midsized companies, while its real estate activity covers industrial and logistics assets and rental housing such as senior living and student housing. All of its investments are approved by a Sharia advisory board, so it avoids interest-based businesses, and in real estate it acts as principal, arranger, and manager, often through joint ventures. The firm invests primarily in the United States and the Middle East and has completed transactions across the United States, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Founded in 1997, the firm is headquartered in Manama, Bahrain, with additional offices in the United States, the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore.
