Abu Dhabi investment authority publishes 2010 ADIA review

The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA) today published its 2010 ADIA Review, which builds on the information in its inaugural 2009 Review with a number of new features. Established in 1976, ADIA is a globally-diversified investment institution that prudently invests funds on behalf of the Government of Abu Dhabi through a strategy focused on long-term value creation. The 2010 ADIA Review pays tribute to the late Sheikh Ahmed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Managing Director of ADIA between 1997 and 2010. He is remembered as an important humanitarian and as a modest man of high integrity who worked tirelessly to build the foundations for ADIA's future. The 2010 ADIA Review contains a number of new features, including market overviews for each of the asset classes in which we invest, as well as significant developments within our investing departments. It also offers insights into areas such as ADIA's culture and the many support departments that together make a significant contribution toward our continued success. The 2010 Review also highlights some of the key developments at ADIA during 2010, including: - ADIA's compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) - Senior appointments in areas including Private Equities, Equities, Real Estate and Accounts. H.H. Sheikh Hamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Managing Director of ADIA , said, "By building on the information provided in our first Review, the 2010 Review aims to further enhance understanding of ADIA and how we invest, while highlighting the important contributions of all those who make ADIA what it is today."
