World's Youngest Fintech Firm Founder Closes MENA's Largest Healthcare Credit Fund at $533M

Gulf Business, NOVEMBER 20, 2025

Gulf Business documented Seha Invest's October 2025 milestone — the closing of a SAR 2 billion healthcare private credit fund by a 27-year-old founder in the presence of the Saudi royal family and global institutional investors. The article described Sukuk Seha, the platform's crowdfunding dimension, as 'a turning point in how ordinary investors engage with the healthcare economy' — democratising access to healthcare investment through Sharia-compliant instruments accessible to retail investors. Thousands of investors registered since its late-2025 launch.

What this means for us: At 27, a founder from our region built the MENA's largest healthcare credit fund. He used Sharia-compliant instruments. He designed the platform so that ordinary members of our community can participate in healthcare investment. That is not a distant success story. It is a direct demonstration of what our next generation builds when they have the skills and the conviction to go after what they see.
