Frequently Asked Questions

What stage of company do you invest in?

We invest across the venture spectrum through two specialized firms: early-stage technology companies in the MENA region and the GCC through KISP Ventures, and technology companies in North America through Anthem Venture Partners.

What does founder-friendly financing mean here?

We structure terms to keep founders motivated and in control of building their business, within a Shariah-compliant framework — avoiding structures that rely on interest or transfer disproportionate economics away from the founding team.

How is venture investing kept Shariah-compliant?

Investments are screened and structured within KFH Capital's Shariah governance framework, under the oversight of the Fatwa and Sharia'a Supervisory Board, covering both the target's activities and the financing structure used.
