Zaldi Investments, an Egyptian company, aims to launch three new investment funds within two months, including a gold investment fund, a silver investment fund, and a Sharia-compliant equity fund, according to Hatem El-Banna, the company's managing director, speaking to Zawya Arabic.

Al-Banna spoke to Zawya Arabic in a video interview on the sidelines of the Portfolio Egypt 2026 conference, organized by the local newspaper Al-Mal in cooperation with the London Stock Exchange Group as the exclusive knowledge partner, on Monday. The full interview will be published later.

Zaldi Investments operates in Egypt actively in investment banking, portfolio management and mutual funds, and is a subsidiary of Zaldi Capital Egypt.

“We have three funds coming soon… We will have two funds in the precious metals sector, one in gold and (the second) in silver, and a fund in the field of Sharia-compliant stocks,” according to Al-Banna.

The company had previously announced its intention to launch two metals funds without further details, while Zawya reported in mid-May on the company’s plans to launch a Sharia-compliant equity fund within two months , but without details on the target size.

When asked about the expected launch date of these three funds, Al-Banna said: "Very soon... within a month or two," noting that the target size for these funds would be a minimum of 100 million Egyptian pounds ($1.9 million) for each fund.
