Investcorp, a Bahrain-based alternative asset manager, surpassed both its fund-raising and assets under management targets in the 2026 financial year, despite the ongoing war disrupting investment activity in the Gulf region. The company raised "north of $7 billion" in financing for the fiscal year ending June 30, with a significant portion coming from investors outside the region, according to Rishi Kapoor, the company's chief investment officer and vice chairman.
Kapoor emphasized that Investcorp's diversified business model allows it to adapt to changing investment opportunities, stating, "If it's not going to be North American private equity this year, it's going to be something else." The firm, which is 90% active in the US and Europe, has well over $64 billion in assets, slightly surpassing its $63 billion target.
While the 2027 fiscal year's asset growth is difficult to predict, the company remains on track to achieve its goal of reaching $100 billion in assets under management. Despite the geopolitical instability, Investcorp remains undeterred and plans to continue its role as a conduit for capital and investment opportunities between the Gulf and the rest of the world.
