Dubai Investments delivered a stable performance in the first quarter of 2026, reflecting the resilience of its diversified portfolio and the strength of its core operating segments.

As of March 31, 2026, total assets grew to AED 23.43 billion, compared to AED 23.28 billion as at 31 December 2025, while total equity increased to AED 15.39 billion, compared to AED 15.22 billion as at 31 December 2025, reflecting the continued strength of the Group’s asset base and its focus on long-term value creation.

Khalid Bin Kalban, Vice Chairman and CEO of Dubai Investments, commented, “The Group’s performance in the first quarter reflects the underlying strength and balance of its business model, which continues to support consistent outcomes despite varying market conditions. Dubai Investments has maintained a disciplined approach to asset allocation, with a strong focus on income visibility and operational continuity across its core sectors. This approach enables the Group to absorb market fluctuations while sustaining performance, supported by a well-established base of recurring revenues and a diversified mix of assets that continues to deliver across cycles.’’
