The Growth of GCC and MENA State-Owned Investors ($ Trillion)

In 2023, GCC Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWFs) hit US $4.1 trillion in assets under management. Led by the "Oil Five" (ADIA, Mubadala, ADQ, PIF, QIA), these funds are set to expand significantly, with forecasts projecting growth to $4.9 trillion by 2025 and $7.6 trillion by 2030.

This growth will be a major contributor to the anticipated $11.2 trillion in assets across SWFs, Public Pension Funds (PPFs), and Central Banks (CBs) in the broader MENA region by 2030. The GCC’s share will drive a substantial portion of this total.
