Document background
The Investment Agreement is a crucial document used in the United Arab Emirates for structuring and documenting investment transactions. It is essential for both local and foreign investments, particularly following the UAE's reforms allowing increased foreign ownership in mainland companies. This agreement typically includes detailed provisions on investment amount, shareholding structure, investor protections, governance rights, and exit mechanisms, all aligned with UAE commercial laws and regulations. It's commonly used for venture capital investments, private equity transactions, strategic corporate investments, and joint ventures, requiring careful consideration of UAE company law, foreign investment regulations, and sector-specific requirements. The agreement must comply with both federal UAE laws and specific emirate or free zone regulations where applicable.
