The firm operates as a diversified regional financial services platform serving individual investors, high-net-worth clients, and institutional/corporate customers across Kuwait, the broader MENA region (Jordan, UAE, Oman, Bahrain, Yemen), and the United States.

The company's core offerings span asset management, discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management, custody services, fund management (including the Al-Wasm Fund targeting Kuwait Stock Exchange-listed equities), investment and corporate finance advisory, capital market transactions, and subscription agent services.

The platform is complemented by a portfolio management system and a custody services platform.

Revenue is generated through multiple streams: recurring management and performance fees from managed portfolios and funds; advisory and transaction fees for direct investments, real estate, private equity, and capital market transactions; subscription agent and consulting fees; and income from eight wholly-owned subsidiaries covering brokerage, finance, real estate, automotive sales and leasing, debt collection, management consulting, and agriculture. The distribution model combines direct enterprise sales for institutional and HNW clients with self-serve digital trading for retail investors.
