The investment company plans to sell a stake of up to 25% in DIP and is currently in talks with banks regarding the possible listing. While the bourse filing did not disclose further details, sources familiar with the matter suggest that DIP could be valued up to $2.5 billion. Dubai Investments is targeting to launch the IPO in the first quarter of next year, though no final decisions have been made, and the timing might change.
DIP is a sprawling 2,300-hectare development that includes industrial, commercial, and residential spaces. It comprises offices, hotels, and homes, hosting over 160,000 residents and more than 5,000 tenants, according to DIP's website. A spokesperson for Dubai Investments stated that the company currently has no additional information to share on the valuation of DIP and the timing of the IPO.
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has seen a flurry of IPOs from both state-backed entities and private companies in recent years. This trend is fueled by robust housing demand and higher infrastructure spending. Home to the world's tallest skyscraper, Dubai has become one of the world's fastest-growing cities, surpassing a population of four million in August, according to government estimates.
Dubai Holding, one of the country's largest landowners and real estate developers, raised around $585 million in May through an IPO of its residential REIT. Additionally, construction firm ALEC announced on Monday that it would float a 20% stake on the Dubai Financial Market. These developments underscore the growing interest in real estate investments in the region and the potential for significant returns for investors.
