Dar Al Istithmar

Dar Al Istithmar (DI), a joint venture between Deutsche Bank, Russell Wood and Oxford Islamic Finance, based in the United Kingdom, has been appointed by Amiri Capital LLP as the Shariah Advisor for the Amiri Equity Alternative Strategies Fund (AEAS).

The DI Shariah Supervisory Committee is led by Sheikh Hussain Hamid Hassan.

DI has access to the resources of its parent companies: financial expertise of Deutsche Bank, business links in the Middle East of Russell Wood and the academic strength of Oxford Islamic Finance through its association with Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies and the University of Oxford.

Amiri Capital and DI are working together to expand the frontiers of the Islamic finance industry through a continuous process of innovation in finance and Shariah advice, as seen in AEAS. DI was the winner of the 2006 Euromoney Award for Best Islamic Advisory and Assurance Services.

DI is completely independent of its parent companies in its operations as well as from Amiri Capital.
