"Golub Capital is expanding in the Middle East," said Lawrence Golub, CEO of Golub Capital. "Both our new office in ADGM and Naser's appointment are part of our commitment to providing Golub Capital private credit strategies to investors in the Middle East and to providing gold standard client service to our growing investor base here."
