Frequently Asked Questions

I need to have access to my funds at any time. Can I still invest with Mnaara?

We understand the importance of having access to your funds. While long-term investing may involve some degree of illiquidity, committing to a longer-term investment horizon often results in higher potential returns. However, we also offer income funds that provide regular distributions, with the possibility of redeeming your capital.

What is the minimum investment required?

The minimum investment is different for each type of fund. For the Global Growth Funds, the minimum commitment value is £100,000 (or its equivalent in USD) which is typically drawn-down over a period of 5 years (Average of £20,000 per year); as for Global Income Funds, the minimum investment is £20,000 (or its equivalent in USD).

I have concerns about traditional banking institutions. How is Mnaara different?

Mnaara is not a bank, it is an investment platform. We facilitate access to investment products listed on our platform, but we do not handle funds directly. Your investments are held by independent custodians and managed by financial institutions with deep relevant experience. It is important to thoroughly understand the risks and assess whether each opportunity is suitable for your investment goals before investing.

How can I be confident that Mnaara's investments are genuinely Shariah-compliant?

We have a stringent screening process put in place to ensure that all our investment products are Shariah-compliant. Each product and its underlying investments undergo a thorough review by our Shariah advisor to ensure adherence to Islamic principles. If you have specific questions about the Shariah aspects of any product, please reach out to us, and we will be happy to provide further clarification.

How can I be sure that the fund managers will deliver the promised returns?

Our fund managers have proven track records of delivering returns consistently. We carefully select our managers based on their expertise and historical performance. Detailed information about the managers and their past performance is made available to you before taking any investment decision.

I'm looking for a guaranteed return on my investment. Can Mnaara provide that?

We cannot offer guaranteed returns, as all investments come with a degree of risk. However, private markets historically have provided higher returns compared to public market instruments. We provide regular updates and reports on the performance of our investments, allowing you to track the progress of your portfolio.

I prefer to invest in my business or in real estate. Why should I consider investments offered through Mnaara?

Diversification is crucial for a well-rounded investment portfolio. Our Shariah-compliant investment products offer unique opportunities across global asset classes that may not be directly available to you. By diversifying your investments, you could reduce risks and potentially increase your expected returns, however, it is important to thoroughly understand the risks and assess whether each opportunity is suitable for you and aligned with your investment goals before investing.

I'm uncertain about the future and hesitant to invest in growth products. What options do I have?

We understand your concerns about uncertainty and the desire for stability. At Mnaara, we offer a range of investment products that suit different goals and risk appetites. Our income products provide stability and regular returns from the outset. With our Income Fund you can start earning returns immediately while potentially having access to your investment. We can help you create a balanced portfolio that aligns with your preferences and gradually incorporates growth products. However, it is important to thoroughly understand the risks and assess whether each opportunity is suitable for your investment goals before investing.

How can I monitor the performance of my investments?

Our platform offers comprehensive access to reporting, monitoring, and performance tracking, ensuring full transparency and visibility.
