Placement agent services

Artane Partners acts as a placement agent for companies and fund managers raising debt and equity capital from investors across the Gulf. We represent the party raising capital and run the process end to end, from positioning to close.

A placement agent introduces a company or fund to suitable investors and manages the fundraising process on its behalf. As your placement agent, Artane Partners prepares the opportunity to an institutional standard, identifies and approaches the right allocators across the Gulf Cooperation Council, and supports negotiations through to a completed raise. We act for the party raising capital - not the investor - and our incentives are aligned with a successful close.

Our focus is the Gulf: sovereign wealth funds, family offices and institutional allocators across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman. Reaching these allocators well depends on trusted relationships and credible preparation - not volume. (For background, see our guide to what a placement agent does.)

How we work

Positioning
We define the opportunity clearly and honestly - what you are raising, why now, and why you.
Materials
We prepare institutional-quality materials: teaser, information memorandum and defensible financials.
Introductions
We reach the right Gulf allocators through credible relationships, not mass outreach.
Diligence & close
We support the investor through diligence and structuring, and manage the process to a completed raise - with capital flowing directly between investor and company.

Frequently asked questions

What does a placement agent do?
A placement agent helps a company or fund raise capital by introducing it to suitable investors and managing the process on its behalf - preparing materials, approaching the right allocators, and supporting negotiations through to a close. Artane Partners represents the party raising capital, not the investor.
Which investors does Artane Partners reach?
We focus on Gulf capital: sovereign wealth funds, family offices and institutional allocators across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman.
How is Artane Partners paid?
Fees are agreed clearly and in writing before any work begins, typically an engagement fee plus a success fee payable on a completed raise. We never ask anyone to pay to release or unlock funds. The engagement fee also carries a simple commitment: if we do not deliver the deployment-ready investor meetings agreed at the outset, it is refunded.
Does Artane Partners take custody of money?
No. Capital flows directly between the investor and the company through their own legal and banking arrangements. We never hold client or investor money.
