The Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) and the Emirates Family Office Association (EFOA) have struck a strategic partnership to further enhance Abu Dhabi's value proposition to local and global family offices in Abu Dhabi.

The cooperation aims to add EFOA’s unique experience to ADIO's existing mandate of spearheading Abu Dhabi's economic reform. The EFOA's primary contribution is its local and global network of family offices and experience in policy dialogue, business development, and asset preservation.

After that, the ADIO will give targeted long-term private capital investment support to qualifying UHNWI and family offices in order to eliminate investment friction. This assistance covers everything from business licensing and market entry to lifestyle integration and strategic partnerships.
Notably, both entities will also collaborate on policy dialogue and regulatory innovation in Abu Dhabi. This move ensures that the city will be able to address the evolving priorities of international investors while reinforcing its role as a partner of choice for wealth management and preservation as well as long-term value creation.
Together, the entities intend to establish a more seamless, investor-led ecosystem that will support long-term capital in the region.
