    Monroe Capital LLC (“Monroe”), a premier asset management firm specializing in private credit markets, today announced the official opening of its office in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, following receipt of its Financial Services Permission (FSP) from the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of ADGM, the international financial centre (IFC) of Abu Dhabi, the Capital of UAE. The new office marks a significant milestone in Monroe’s strategic expansion into the Middle East and builds on its global footprint, which includes offices across the United States, Asia, and Australia.  

    The Abu Dhabi office will serve as Monroe’s regional hub, strengthening its ability to engage with institutional investors and deepen client relationships across the GCC and the broader Middle East. The firm’s establishment in ADGM underscores its long-term commitment to the region and confidence in Abu Dhabi’s growing prominence as a global financial center.

    “We are excited to open our office in ADGM and further extend Monroe’s global platform,” said Zia Uddin, President of Monroe Capital. “As private credit continues to grow in importance worldwide, Monroe’s differentiated approach—rooted in disciplined underwriting, innovative structuring, and long-term partnership—positions us to meet the evolving needs of investors in the Middle East and beyond.”  

     

    Waleed Noor, Managing Director and Head of Middle East at Monroe, added, “Our presence in Abu Dhabi marks an exciting new chapter for Monroe in the Middle East. We are committed to building long-term partnerships with institutional investors and family offices across the region, working closely to understand their priorities and deliver solutions that create lasting value. This office represents our dedication to supporting the growth of the regional financial ecosystem and contributing to Abu Dhabi’s role as a global financial hub.”

     

    Arvind Ramamurthy, Chief Market Development Officer at ADGM said, “The addition of Monroe Capital to ADGM’s ecosystem is another important milestone in strengthening our asset management community. As a premier firm specializing in private credit markets, their decision to establish in ADGM reflects the confidence global institutions place in our robust regulatory framework and dynamic financial ecosystem.
