HE Mohammed AL SHAIBANI

As the controller of Dubai’s commercial and business assets, to say Al Shaibani has his fingers in many pies would be an understatement. The fund’s investment portfolio reads like a who’s who of Dubai business with the likes of Emirates, Emaar Properties, Emirates NBD and SHUAA Capital only the tip of the iceberg. Notable investments in 2013 included the acquisition of Atlantis Hotel from Dubai World while the company also inked a $2.5 billion five-year loan facility.
