ADFD advances Maldives aviation sector through inauguration of Velana International Airport project
Aligned with its commitment to its strategic sustainable development goals, Abu Dhabi Fund for Development (ADFD) participated in the inauguration of the Velana International Airport, a landmark project that aims to significantly enhance Maldives' infrastructure. With a total investment of Dhs 330.5 million (USD 90 million) from ADFD, the project was implemented in two phases, receiving co-financing from Saudi Fund for Development, Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development, and OPEC Fund for International Development. This cooperation highlights the shared commitment of regional development institutions to support high impact projects in developing nations to contribute to an inclusive, sustainable growth. Attending the inauguration ceremony, which coincided with Maldives' 60th independence anniversary, were Dr. Mohamed Muizzu, President of the Republic of Maldives, Mohamed Saif Al Suwaidi, Director-General of ADFD, and Rahma Bin Abdulrahman Al Shamsi, UAE Ambassador to the Republic of Maldives, along with senior officials from both nations and from Saudi Fund for Development, Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development, and OPEC Fund for International Development. ADFD's funding played a critical role in enhancing the operational capacity of Velana International Airport, accommodating over 7 million passengers annually meeting the nation's growing travel demand. The project included the expansion of the airport's western passenger terminal, the implementation of 26 passenger boarding bridges, and the construction of a state-of-the-art international terminal. These enhancements reinforce the Maldives' position as a key hub for commercial, tourism, and investment activities, and underscore the Fund's commitment to supporting impactful, sustainable projects that improve the quality of life in communities. Dr. Mohamed Muizzu, President of the Republic of Maldives, during the ceremony, expressed his sincere appreciation to His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, for the continuous support from the UAE to advance Maldives' national goals. He said: 'ADFD's financing of Velana International Airport, in partnership with international collaborators, reflects our shared commitment to achieving sustainable development goals and demonstrates a long-term strategic vision for infrastructure development and growth in developing nations. The opening of this airport will further enhance the Maldives' position in the global aviation sector.' Mohamed Saif Al Suwaidi, Director-General of ADFD, highlighted that this collaborative development is a testament to ADFD's dedication to supporting the sustainable development goals of its partner nations. He reaffirmed the Fund's mission towards strengthening strategic partnerships between regional development institutions and international organizations, fostering broader and more sustainable developmental impacts. Al Suwaidi said: 'Through our partnership with the Government of Maldives and regional development institutions, we have collectively contributed to country's economic and social growth. Coinciding with the Maldives' Independence Day celebrations, the inauguration of Velana International Airport underscores our ongoing commitment to ensuring greater resource efficiency and supporting our partner nations to build a resilient economy and prosperous future.' ADFD's partnership with Maldives dates to 1978. Over the past four decades, the Fund financed 11 strategic projects with a total investment of Dhs 1.11 billion, spanning across key sectors including transportation, tourism, healthcare, and energy. ADFD played a critical role in supporting Maldives' economic activities and enabling the country to achieve its sustainable development objectives. WAM

Aldar announced today the record-breaking sale of an eight-bedroom ultra-luxury mansion in Faya Al Saadiyat—an exclusive beachfront community located on one of the last remaining villa plots on Saadiyat Island—for Dhs 400 million, making it the most valued home ever sold in Abu Dhabi. The sale reflects the sustained growth of Abu Dhabi's luxury real estate market, driven by strong demand from high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), long-term residents, and international investors. It follows the Dhs 137 million sale of Aldar's Nobu Residences Abu Dhabi penthouse on Saadiyat Island.

Expatriates accounted for 86% of buyers, including 46% residents and 40% non-residents, with the top nationalities comprising Russia, France, United Kingdom, China and United States. The mansion as a serene beachfront. Located directly on Saadiyat Island's pristine beach and within the award-winning Saadiyat Beach Golf Club, the Faya Al Saadiyat mansion offers the highest standards of luxury and the largest allocation of space on the island, spanning 6,561 sqm.

This sustained momentum reflects the success of Abu Dhabi's long-term vision, enabled by progressive government policies, long-term residency initiatives, and strategic investment in infrastructure, culture, and entertainment.' Ghazi Saeed Al Ateibi, Executive Director Real Estate Transactions Sector at ADREC, said: 'Abu Dhabi is recognized as a world leading destination for global real estate investments, driven by growing trust in a market that is well-regulated, transparent, and investor-friendly. A road leads to Faya Al Saadiyat. At ADREC, our role is to safeguard this ecosystem by upholding strong governance, regulatory oversight, and seamless processes across the sector.

Behind the striking contemporary façade, the mansion redefines bespoke living with a collection of world-class amenities, including a private car gallery, a golf simulator, an in-house cinema, and sophisticated wellness and fitness suites, alongside direct access to one of the UAE's most desirable beaches.
