Burjeel Holdings Celebrates Milestone Debut Sukuk Listing in London
Burjeel Holdings has officially debuted on the London Stock Exchange’s International Securities Market, marking a significant entry into global debt markets with its inaugural $500 million Sukuk. The issuance, which garnered impressive interest with a $1.6 billion orderbook and 3.2 times oversubscription, highlights strong confidence from both regional and international investors. This achievement represents a major milestone for the UAE-based healthcare provider, being the first such issuance from a MENA healthcare firm since 2018. The ceremony in London, attended by key UAE diplomats and company leadership, underscored the firm's growing influence on the international financial stage.
The capital raised will be strategically deployed to refinance current debt and accelerate the company’s ambitious growth plans. Burjeel aims to channel these funds into advancing its digital transformation, AI-driven medical solutions, and specialized clinical research. With a vast network spanning the UAE, Oman, and Saudi Arabia, this financial move reinforces Burjeel's commitment to expanding high-quality healthcare access across the GCC. By bolstering its financial foundation, the group is well-positioned to maintain its trajectory of operational excellence while continuing to scale its integrated health services throughout the region.
