Investcorp Capital, an investor in alternative investment opportunities within private markets, has announced the appointment of Sana Khater as its new Chief Executive Officer effective September 1.

Khater succeeds Mohamed Aamer, who has served as Interim CEO since March 2025. Until Sana officially joins, Aamer will continue to lead the company and ensure a smooth leadership transition process, said a statement from Investcorp.

An industry veteran, Sana brings over 35 years of financial and strategic leadership experience from international C-Suite positions across both listed and private companies, including Aldar, Waha Capital, NBK Capital, and National Bank of Kuwait.

Under her guidance, she successfully led businesses through international growth, complex transformations, capital allocations, and corporate governance initiatives, said the statement from Investcorp Capital.

She brings profound understanding of a complementary set of industries, including private equity, real estate, asset management, and financial services.

As CEO, Khater will be able to leverage her proven ability to drive shareholder value and deliver operational excellence across both public and private institutions in helping the company capitalise on global investment opportunities and advance its alternative investments focused strategy for all its stakeholders.

The appointment also significantly strengthens the Company's stakeholder management capabilities, it stated.

Welcoming her into the fold, Chairman Mohammed Alardhi said: "Her exceptional leadership experience and deep expertise in financial services positions her well to steer ICAP through its next chapter. Abu Dhabi continues to strengthen its position as a global hub for investment firms, and I am confident that Sana will harness this momentum, as she leads the business with distinction and ambition. I look forward to working with her to drive shareholder value and grow the company."

Khater said she was honoured and excited to join Investcorp Capital at such a pivotal time in its growth journey.

"The company is truly unique and, with its differentiated investment platform and offering, is well positioned to create value through its exposure to the global alternatives space backed by over 42 years of Investcorp's track record," she stated.

"I look forward to working with the Board, the Investcorp team, and all our stakeholders to build on the Company's momentum and drive sustainable, long-term performance and value for shareholders," she added.
