International Holding Company, the UAE's most-valuable listed company, will invest Dh1.4 billion ($381 million) in the follow-on share sale floated by Indian billionaire Gautam Adani’s flagship business last week.
The investment in Adani Enterprises' $2.5 billion further public offering (FPO) is IHC's first this year and part of the Abu Dhabi conglomerate's efforts to scale up and diversify its investments globally, it said on Monday.
The investment will be made through the group's subsidiary, Green Transmission Investment Holding.
“For the past three years, India has been a key investment destination for IHC," Syed Shueb, chief executive of IHC, told The National on Monday. "It is a large market that presents opportunities with monetary economic stability.
"Our trust in the Indian regulatory body for securities markets makes India an attractive destination for IHC."
IHC will be eyeing more acquisitions throughout this year, focusing on fast-growing economies, rapidly expanding equity markets and top investment destinations, it said.
It aims to increase its global acquisition by 70 per cent by the end of the year, with the clean energy and food processing sectors being a key focus. It will seek opportunities in Europe, Africa, Asia and South America, the company said.
"We are watching the international market closely for new prospects and we will continue exploring further opportunities outside our traditional market in 2023," Mr Shueb said.
IHC's investment comes as Adani Group is embroiled in a controversy after US investor Hindenburg Research last week said it was shorting the conglomerate's stocks.
In a January 24 report, Hindenburg accused companies controlled by Mr Adani, Asia’s richest man, of being involved in "brazen" market manipulation and accounting fraud.
Shares of the companies under the Adani Group umbrella plummeted as a result, with losses continuing on Monday. Companies in the conglomerate have lost a combined $68 billion in market capitalisation since Wednesday.
Late on Sunday, Adani Group fired back at Hindenburg, saying in a 413-page response that it had complied with all local laws and had made the necessary regulatory disclosures.
IHC on Thursday announced its interest to bid for the Adani Group's follow-on sale of shares, which began on Friday and runs until Tuesday.
"Our business decisions are purely based on an analysis of objective facts, aided by the use of business intelligence and our analytics tools, which help us to achieve the maximum benefits for our shareholders under the corporate governance regulation," Ahmad Ibrahim, IHC's head of marketing and corporate communication, told The National last week.
Monday's announcement is the second deal that IHC has forged with Adani Group after last year's Dh7.3 billion investment in three green-focused companies of the Indian conglomerate.
"The advantage of the [Adani] FPO is the historical reference for the company's earnings report, management, business practices and much data to bank on before making any investment decision," Mr Shueb said in the statement.
We are watching the international market closely for new prospects and we will continue exploring further opportunities outside our traditional market in 2023
Syed Shueb,
chief executive of International Holding Company
“Our interest in Adani Group is driven by our confidence and belief in the fundamentals of Adani Enterprises; we see strong potential for growth from a long-term perspective and added value to our shareholders."
IHC was founded in 1998 as part of a move to diversify and develop non-oil business sectors in the UAE. The company had a market value of more than Dh878.5 billion at the close of trading on Monday.
In November, the company reported it had tripled its net profit to more than Dh6.4 billion in the third quarter of last year, while revenue grew by about 48 per cent to Dh12.4 billion.
In October, IHC made a foray into the South American market with a Dh734 million investment in Lulo Colombia, the holding company of Colombia’s first regulated digital bank, in which it acquired a 49.99 per cent stake.
IHC also boosted its portfolio by acquiring a 54 per cent stake in Abu Dhabi ICT provider Emircom for Dh250 million, and a 15 per cent stake in healthcare services provider Burjeel Holdings.

The five pillars of Islam
Evacuations to France hit by controversy
- Over 500 Gazans have been evacuated to France since November 2023
- Evacuations were paused after a student already in France posted anti-Semitic content and was subsequently expelled to Qatar
- The Foreign Ministry launched a review to determine how authorities failed to detect the posts before her entry
- Artists and researchers fall under a programme called Pause that began in 2017
- It has benefited more than 700 people from 44 countries, including Syria, Turkey, Iran, and Sudan
- Since the start of the Gaza war, it has also included 45 Gazan beneficiaries
- Unlike students, they are allowed to bring their families to France

THREE POSSIBLE REPLACEMENTS
Khalfan Mubarak
The Al Jazira playmaker has for some time been tipped for stardom within UAE football, with Quique Sanchez Flores, his former manager at Al Ahli, once labelling him a “genius”. He was only 17. Now 23, Mubarak has developed into a crafty supplier of chances, evidenced by his seven assists in six league matches this season. Still to display his class at international level, though.
Rayan Yaslam
The Al Ain attacking midfielder has become a regular starter for his club in the past 15 months. Yaslam, 23, is a tidy and intelligent player, technically proficient with an eye for opening up defences. Developed while alongside Abdulrahman in the Al Ain first-team and has progressed well since manager Zoran Mamic’s arrival. However, made his UAE debut only last December.
Ismail Matar
The Al Wahda forward is revered by teammates and a key contributor to the squad. At 35, his best days are behind him, but Matar is incredibly experienced and an example to his colleagues. His ability to cope with tournament football is a concern, though, despite Matar beginning the season well. Not a like-for-like replacement, although the system could be adjusted to suit.
