What ANB Invest does

Arab National Investment Company (ANB Capital) is a Saudi Arabia-based Closed Joint Stock Company licensed by the Capital Market Authority (License No. 37-07072), with paid-up capital of SAR 1,000 million and a 30+ year operating history dating to its first mutual fund launch in the early 1990s. The firm operates a multi-line investment services platform spanning securities brokerage, asset management, investment banking, alternative investments, custody services, wealth management, and sell-side investment research, serving retail investors, high net worth individuals, institutional clients, foreign investors, and IPO-focused investors. The brokerage platform provides access to the Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul), other GCC exchanges, the Egyptian Exchange, and US exchanges, with stated intent to add further markets, supplemented by international brokerage covering US, Europe, UK, Asia, commodities, ETFs, bonds, and index contracts through a Central Trading Unit.

The underlying technology stack comprises a multi-market trading platform with real-time market data and customizable watch-lists, a proprietary mobile trading app available on iOS and Android, an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system, and a dedicated custody infrastructure integrated with brokerage for local and global securities. Asset management is delivered through a 14-fund public mutual fund complex covering equity, money market, multi-asset, and bond/debt categories, with parallel conventional and Shariah-compliant variants supervised by dedicated Shariah Fund Boards. The research division produces daily market watch, daily bulletins, weekly insights, sector reports, company reports, pre-IPO notes, and US weekly market insights, distributed through a research portal and email subscription. Distribution combines four physical investment centers (Riyadh Main, Riyadh Al-Mursalat, Al-Khobar, Jeddah), digital channels (web, mobile app), and telephone-based inside sales.

The business model is multi-stream: transaction-fee revenue from securities brokerage; recurring management fees from asset management tied to AUM; professional services fees from investment banking advisory; recurring fees from alternative investments including real estate and private equity; managed services fees from custody; and usage-based revenue from margin trading. Go-to-market spans enterprise field sales through dedicated wealth managers and specialist teams at the investment centers, inside sales via the Central Trading Unit, and product-led growth through the self-service mobile app. No disclosed revenue, headcount, or M&A activity is available in the source data, and the ownership structure is described as a standalone financial services company with no identified parent or controlling entity.
