Brevan Howard, a leading global macro investment firm, announced recently the opening of its newest office in Abu Dhabi. The firm has leased space at the Al Sarab Tower for more than one hundred people. It is relocating several senior executives from across the business to lead this expansion.
โAbu Dhabi and ADGM offers a transparent and business-friendly environment to the banking, fintech, and investment management industries,โ saidย Alan Howard, Founder, Brevan Howard. โIt is an important global hub with tremendous potential. We are delighted to partner with the government as it builds and develops for the future.โ
Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) is one of the worldโs leading international financial centres, located in the capital city of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). ADGM is an ideal centre for asset management due to its exceptional infrastructure, robust regulatory frameworks, supportive local government, sound regulation and use of English law.

H.E. Ahmed Jasim Al Zaabi, Chairman of ADGMย said: โWe are delighted for Brevan Howard to choose the ‘capital of capital’ – Abu Dhabi as their regional headquarters and glad to see investment firms recognise the prospects it has to offer. ADGM has quickly emerged as a hub for regional and international asset management firms, enabling businesses to operate in a trusted legal environment through the direct application of English common law and offers full ownership of their businesses in a zero-tax environment to support their ambitions to thrive and access the regionโs market opportunities. As an international financial centre, ADGM continues to foster the growth of Abu Dhabi becoming the destination of choice for investment and investors alike.โ
