OVERVIEW OF ARQAAM GROUP: SECTOR FOCUS

Strong performance in these markets is projected to continue, presenting investors with an attractive investment profile
Furthermore, with high mobile penetration and low banking penetration in these regions, FinTech platforms have been springing up in the MENA region, more than doubling in number from 46 in 2012 to 105 in 2015 and is estimated to more than double to 250 by 2020
