From its base at Dubai International Financial Centre, Zabeel Investments has built up an AED 12.4 billion portfolio in its first year, incorporating property development, construction, hospitality, media, finance and education.

The company’s acquisition and development plans will continue apace in 2007, with a number of exciting projects in the pipeline
