In early 2007, Addax Bank launched First Education Holdings, a holding company, established in partnership with a team of education and private equity professionals to invest and manage education and education related businesses across the GCC, Middle East and North Africa. Later that same year, the bank launched Addax Capital in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia through a SR 200 million private placement which was heavily oversubscribed. Addax Capital was set up with the aim of capitalising on the significant potential of investment banking activities in the Saudi market. Addax Bank’s most recent deals include the private placement of US $50 million in equity capital to fund the expansion of Eos Airlines, Inc. With less than two years of flight operations, Eos has significantly raised the bar on transatlantic travel, designing the world’s only fleet of Boeing 757s outfitted for just 48 guests, delivering an uncrowded, stress-free travel experience, and generally proving itself a “category of one.” Addax Bank was the sole placement and investment agent. In December 2007, Addax Bank announced the successful completion of its capital increase. Addax’s capital increase was heavily oversubscribed, with Abu Dhabi- based Waha Capital acquiring a 42. 5 per cent stake in the bank. Following the deal Waha Capital will become the bank’s largest shareholder and will fund Addax Bank’s regional expansion. Addax Bank’s investors now include leasing groups from across the GCC region including UAE, Kuwait, KSA, Qatar and Oman. Addax Bank was recognised by its peers in the banking industry. The bank won: “Best New Bank” in 2007 by Banker Middle East and “Best Investment Advisory” in 2008. . Euromoney, the world’s leading financial markets magazine, recently launched the Liquid Real Estate Awards to cover the global developments in real estate finance and capital markets. Addax Bank won both ‘Best Investment Bank in Bahrain’, ‘Best Bank for Equity Services in Bahrain’ for 2007 for its outstanding contribution to global real estate finance.
Following it’s establishment in 2003, Bahrain based Addax Bank has gained a reputation as one of the Middle East’s premier, investment banks, renowned for its involvement in innovative, high- profile transactions across a wide cross- section of industries. The bank has since participated in a number of landmark deals across the GCC region. Addax Bank was responsible for the structuring and placement of the US$ 150 million deal to finance 20 Express by Holiday Inn hotels across six countries in the GCC. The bank also participated with Dubai International Capital and other lead investors in creating JD Capital, a US$300 million company targeting investment opportunities in Jordan. Tapping into the region’s growing outsourcing industry, Addax Bank structured a US$ 20 million transaction to set up MENA Business Services, a leading GCC- based provider of outsourcing services for key sectors such as healthcare, telecommunications and banking and financial services. Establishing a niche for itself in the region’s booming hospitality sector, Addax Bank launched Nuzul Holdings, in collaboration with The Ascott Group of Singapore, to acquire and manage a chain of serviced residences throughout the Middle East and North Africa. As the Middle East region continued to experience a period of rapid growth in the real estate and tourism sector, Addax Bank, capitalized on this boom as anchor investor in the Saraya Real Estate MENA Fund, set up to invest in real estate and tourism projects in the GCC and Levant. The US$ 250 million Saraya Real Estate MENA Fund was one of the largest placements in Arab capital markets during 2006. In 2006, the bank marked its entry into media and broadcasting with the launch of Addax Media BSCAddax Media is a holding company that focuses on investing in innovative, high-quality media productions. Addax Media’s first production “Khalid Bin Waleed” was aired on 6 channels including MBC and Dubai Television during Ramadan 2006.
