Arcapita

Arcapita is an international investment firm headquartered in Manama, Bahrain, with additional offices in Atlanta, London, and Singapore. Founded in 1997, Arcapita specializes in private equity, focusing on growth capital and buyout investments across various sectors, including energy, food and beverage, transportation, logistics, and real estate. The firm typically invests between $50 million and $300 million, targeting stabilized properties and development projects that promise current income and capital gains. Arcapita's investment strategy spans North America, Europe, and the Middle East, with plans to explore additional markets in Eastern Europe and Asia. The firm seeks to exit its investments through trade sales, initial public offerings, or sales to financial buyers within three to seven years. After facing financial challenges and restructuring in 2012, Arcapita emerged from bankruptcy in 2013 and has since continued its operations without pursuing new investments.
