Move to develop secondary transfer facility for UAE fractional real estate investments
Stake, the MENA region’s leading digital real estate investment platform, and ACE & Company, a Swiss-headquartered global investment group focused on private markets, with more than US$ 2bn in assets under management, recently announced a strategic partnership to support the development of liquidity solutions for investors in Stake products.
The initiative is intended to create a more liquid, transparent, and efficient marketplace for investors seeking exposure to fractional real estate opportunities through Stake’s platform.
By combining Stake’s innovative access model with ACE & Company’s longstanding experience in private market investing and secondary transactions, the partnership aims to strengthen the investment ecosystem around fractional ownership structures in the UAE.
Infrastructure framework
Through the planned secondary infrastructure framework, investors in Stake products are expected to benefit from greater flexibility in managing their holdings, improved visibility around market pricing, and clearer pathways to liquidity.
The framework operates within Stake’s existing DFSA-approved regulatory permissions, providing investors with established oversight and regulatory clarity. Stake is regulated by the DFSA, the independent regulator for business conducted from or within DIFC.
Capital commitment
“Today, the world is watching the region, and we want to be unambiguous about where we stand: we are long Dubai, and we are long the UAE. That’s exactly what this partnership is all about, a mature, resilient market attracting institutional confidence and capital committed for the long run,” assured Manar Mahmassani, Co-Founder and Co-CEO, Stake.
“This partnership reflects our conviction in the country’s long-term fundamentals and our disciplined approach to capital deployment in high-quality assets. We look forward to further strengthening our relationships with investors and partners across the region,” commented Sherif El Halwagy, Partner and Co-Founder, ACE & Company.
