What is Arcapita's investment strategy?

Does Arcapita manage a single pool of capital or multiple vehicles?
Arcapita operates as a global alternative asset manager that structures and manages distinct real estate and private equity investments for external investors. It does not function as a single-family office. The firm arranges, structures, and manages deals through its offices in the US, UK, Bahrain, Singapore, and Saudi Arabia.

Since its founding in 1997, Arcapita's management team has completed over 100 transactions with more than $30 billion in cumulative deal value, according to the firm. The firm does not disclose current assets under management.
What is Lintara Properties?
Lintara Properties is an Arcapita-launched real estate platform focused on industrial and logistics development.
