Investment funds: A guide to marketing foreign funds in the Middle East

We are pleased to provide this guide to marketing foreign funds in the Middle East, meaning the countries within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).

The guide is aimed at providing a summary of the regulations which apply to marketing the funds as of July 2021.

Our Charles Russell Speechlys funds team - based in the GCC region, the UK and Luxembourg - monitor these regulations, and you are welcome to contact us for more details in the context of you and your colleagues looking to market-specific funds to investors in the region.

We plan to update this guide every six months. To access the guide, please click here.
