BlueFive Capital

BlueFive Capital, founded in late 2024 by Hazem Ben-Gacem—former co-CEO of Investcorp—serves as an alternative investment platform headquartered in Abu Dhabi’s ADGM, with offices in Bahrain and London. It connects capital from the GCC, Asia, and Latin America with high-impact opportunities in emerging and mature markets, aiming to foster long-term value through strategic, technology-driven consolidation in financial services.

Operating across three distinct entities—BlueFive Financial, BlueFive Asset Management, and BlueFive Advisory—the firm pursues a multi-faceted strategy. BlueFive Financial focuses on permanent-capital consolidation of insurance, private wealth, and public-market brokerage firms in the Global South; Asset Management oversees closed-end funds for private equity, real assets, and credit; and Advisory offers institutional M&A, capital raise, and debt-placement counsel.

Since closing its debut private equity fund at US $2 billion in July 2025 and completing a US $120 million founding shareholders round, BlueFive reached US $650 million AUM and acquired Dubai’s Neo Capital platform. With a 27-person team spanning London, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Riyadh, Jeddah, Bahrain, Singapore, and Beijing, BlueFive targets high-growth sectors like healthcare, tech, hospitality, aviation, industrial, and financial services across GCC, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.
