The acquisition is in line with Amanat’s strategy to create a Social Infrastructure Platform which serves as an enabler for the growth and sustainability of Amanat’s portfolio companies.

The acquisition of the real estate of CMRC comprises c. 6,000 square meters of land and a built- up area of c. 6,600 square meters encompassing 2 three-leveled building blocks with 106 inpatient licensed beds alongside rehabilitation facilities including 14 outpatient rooms, 3 gyms and a series of other amenities.

Hamad Alshamsi, Amanat’s Chairman said: “We are assessing a series of opportunities to support us in delivering solid and sustainable returns to our shareholders by investing in the real estate of our leading assets. This includes providing our investments with the right enablers to grow and develop whether through owning the real estate of the asset or investing in technology to further develop our investments. I believe this is another step in the right direction to optimizing our portfolio and delivering sustainable shareholder returns”.

Dr. Mohamad Hamade, CEO of Amanat, added: “The acquisition of CMRC’s Abu Dhabi real estate is another strategic move to create healthcare and education platforms while supporting them through synergistic and enabling platforms. Our Social Infrastructure Platform will target strategic real estate acquisitions with attractive yields to promote stable landlord and tenant relationships in the future. These investments will be tied to our involvement as an influential shareholder across corporate strategy, corporate governance, and corporate finance and where Amanat is working closely with the respective management teams to grow their return profiles. We believe this transaction marks one of many future opportunities in this space.”
