Dubai, August 4, 2007

Daniel Smaller has been appointed managing director, Sales and Distribution, at Algebra Capital.

Leveraging extensive experience with global investment banks such as Deutsche Bank, UBS and Lehman Brothers, Smaller brings a unique blend of MENA expertise and international visibility to Algebra Capital.

“The global financial markets are now looking to the MENASIA region and other emerging markets for high return opportunities brought on by the rapid pace of economic growth,” said Smaller.

“International investors are looking to the region for top quality local asset managers, such as Algebra Capital, who can marry globally competitive products with their in-depth insight in to regional markets and industries.”

Smaller is one of the only internationally recognised emerging market specialists in the Middle East, and was instrumental in bringing international investors to the region in the early 1990s through promoting the region’s stock markets.

“Dan’s responsibility covers global distribution, so he will be focusing on working with the executive team to identify product structures and processes that can rival global offerings, and meet the rising international and regional demand for MENASIA solutions,” commented Ziad Makkawi, CEO and founder, Algebra Capital.

“We are delighted to have him on the team to drive our reach and visibility, and ensure that we continually exceed market standards in everything we do.”
