Capabilities
Advisory and investment, under one roof.
Four capabilities that move together — from sourcing and structuring a mandate to standing behind it with our own capital.
Institutional Capital Advisory
For · GCC funds, sovereign wealth funds, family offices
- Market mapping and opportunity identification
- Deal sourcing and structuring
- Regulatory and Sharia compliance guidance
- Capital deployment strategy and execution
- Portfolio company support, post-investment
Investment angle
We often co-invest with clients in the opportunities we identify.
Example
A Saudi fund seeking USD 100M exposure to Indonesia's halal F&B sector: SHADA identifies the opportunity, structures the deal, and co-invests USD 10M alongside the client fund.
Islamic Finance Structuring & Legal
For · Companies, governments, and institutions structuring Islamic finance transactions
- Sukuk issuance structuring
- Mudharabah and Musharaka partnership design
- Sharia compliance and AAOIFI standards implementation
- Legal documentation and Sharia board coordination
- Regulatory approval navigation
Investment angle
We may structure financing for our own portfolio companies.
Example
An infrastructure company seeking a USD 500M Green Sukuk: SHADA structures the Sukuk, advises on Sharia compliance, and co-invests in the project.
Market Entry & Institutional Facilitation
For · Foreign capital and companies entering ASEAN halal markets
- Market research and competitive landscape analysis
- Government and institutional stakeholder engagement
- Partnership identification and negotiation
- Regulatory approval process support
- Local law and Sharia compliance coordination
Investment angle
We identify investment opportunities during market entry work.
Example
A GCC cosmetics company entering Indonesia: SHADA conducts market research, identifies an acquisition target, and co-invests in the target.
Portfolio Company Support
For · Our co-investors and portfolio companies
- Strategic direction and business planning
- Operational execution support
- Market expansion and growth strategy
- Capital raising for portfolio companies
- Exit planning and value realization
Investment angle
Active investor, not passive fund — the same discipline applied to every mandate.
Example
Post-investment, we sit alongside management on strategy, expansion, and eventual value realization — not just at the closing table.
