Zilla Capital expects the fund to raise USD 100 mn in its first close, El Shenety added. The firm will target high-net-worth individuals in Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC region, along with family office groups, and has already secured two anchor investors.

The firm already has two Saudi companies in its sights, which El Shenety described as “big and well-established local players.” The two acquisitions could together account for 60% of the USD 150 mn fund, he added. Due diligence is set to start in October, with the firm hoping to conclude the acquisitions in 1H 2026.

The firm also plans to launch a EGP 500 mn fund targeting EGX-listed companies, which will focus on “undervalued companies and those of untapped and unrealized potential,” according to El Shenety.
