Having its origins over 2 and a half decades ago, Union Investments today, is a leading multi-sector investment house, offering unrivalled market knowledge, cutting-edge industry insights and a first-class network to support our present and future portfolio of investments.
U. I’s. strategy is to identify investment and partnering opportunities that arise in the U.A.E., GCC and internationally, and to optimize those investments when integrated into the portfolio that we hold. We owe our success to the enduring partnerships we have through our international ventures, collaborators, customers, business associates and shareholders, supported by our celebrity network, professional approach towards each investment and strong and motivated management and staff.
UI’s key strength and focus has been – and continues to be – our ability to optimize returns for our stakeholders across our high-profitability portfolio.
UI has been consistently profitable since its inception, despite dramatic market changes. Each of our investments is strategically chosen based on extensive due diligence, future market potential and its ability to synergize with and leverage the wider UI portfolio. We work with a range of models including joint-ventures, full acquisition, direct and indirect capital investment. Each selected investment has a clear timeline with a carefully crafted exit strategy.
Our strength lies in the fact that our comprehensive investment and value management initiatives are driven through a strong planning process that culminates into strategic high level 5-year plans. These plans help us to be aligned with our shareholder and stakeholder concerns, address challenges in the marketplace, increase profitability, generate value, drive growth, keep focus with the UI vision and re-adjust through strategic intervention. This has ensured that UI is continuously and strategically positioned for growth via market expansion and diversification today and in the years to come.
