DIFC welcomes Oak Hill Advisors as its 100th hedge fund manager

Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) has announced the arrival of Oak Hill Advisors, a milestone that brings the total number of hedge fund managers registered at the Centre to 100.

The US-based credit-focused alternative investment firm, known as OHA, manages approximately USD 112 billion in assets under management and brings more than three decades of expertise across private credit, leveraged loans, high yield bonds and distressed debt strategies.

OHA's establishment in Dubai represents a significant step in the firm's global expansion strategy and reflects the growing attraction of DIFC as a gateway for alternative investment managers seeking access to regional and international capital flows.

DIFC has steadily built out its wealth and asset management ecosystem to position itself among the world's premier financial hubs, attracting major global institutions across banking, insurance and investment management. The centre's regulatory framework, strategic location and sovereign wealth connectivity continue to draw top-tier allocators to the GCC.
