Abu Dhabi/Dubai – August 13, 2025 Mubadala Capital, the asset management arm of Abu Dhabi’s Mubadala Investment Company, has partnered with Cain International to channel billions of dollars into high-end global real estate. The initiative will target prime residential, hospitality, and mixed-use developments in key luxury markets worldwide.

Expanding Global Luxury Footprint

The partnership represents a significant expansion for both firms. Cain International, a diversified investment firm with more than USD 13 billion in assets under management, has built a reputation for delivering some of the world’s most prestigious developments. The collaboration with Mubadala Capital will provide the scale and resources to accelerate these ambitions, particularly in ultra-luxury segments.

Strengthening Ties Through Existing Investments

Mubadala Capital and Cain International already share a strong working relationship through their joint investment in Aman Group, a globally acclaimed luxury hospitality brand known for its ultra-exclusive resorts and residences. The new venture will deepen these ties, allowing the partners to co-develop and expand Aman properties, while exploring similar opportunities with other iconic luxury brands.

Flagship Developments and Future Plans

Cain International has an established track record in landmark projects such as One Beverly Hills, a mixed-use development in California that integrates luxury residences, retail, and hospitality, including an Aman hotel. The Mubadala-Cain venture is expected to replicate this model across prime urban and resort destinations, creating new benchmarks for high-end living and travel.

Luxury Real Estate Demand Remains Strong

Despite global economic uncertainties, demand for ultra-luxury real estate has remained resilient. High-net-worth individuals continue to see prime property as both a lifestyle choice and a stable long-term investment. Mubadala Capital’s entry into this segment on a larger scale reflects confidence in its growth potential, supported by shifting lifestyle priorities, sustained foreign investment, and a strong tourism rebound.

The partnership aims to deliver projects that combine exceptional architecture, design, and service, while prioritizing sustainability and community integration. For Mubadala Capital, this move aligns with its broader investment strategy of diversifying into resilient, high-value asset classes. For Cain International, it marks an opportunity to significantly scale its global portfolio with a partner equally committed to quality and innovation.
