P10, Inc. opened a new office in Dubai’s Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) on January 6 2026, after receiving a license from the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA). The new location will serve as a local hub for the company’s Middle East clients and is part of a broader strategy to deepen its global client footprint.
The expansion aligns with P10’s focus on private‑markets solutions for the middle‑ and lower‑middle‑market segments. CEO and Chairman Luke Sarsfield said the move “underscores our commitment to the UAE and the Middle East, where we see continued growth and a strong position as a financial hub.” Global Head of Client Solutions Sarita Jairath added that the Dubai office will “position P10 at the center of one of the region’s fastest‑growing financial ecosystems.”
P10’s recent financial performance provides context for the expansion. In Q4 2024 the company generated $85 million in revenue, up 35 % year‑over‑year, and grew fee‑paying assets under management (FPAUM) to $25.7 billion, a 10 % increase. In Q3 2025 revenue was $75.9 million, a modest 2 % rise, while FPAUM reached $29.1 billion, up 17 % from the prior year. These figures illustrate steady growth across the private‑equity, private‑credit, and venture‑capital segments that drive P10’s business.
Dubai is a leading financial hub in the Middle East, offering a robust legal framework based on English common law, tax efficiency, and access to a growing Gulf Cooperation Council market. By establishing a presence in the DIFC, P10 can deepen relationships with UAE investors, tap into the broader GCC market, and leverage local regulatory and market expertise to source new private‑markets deals.
The new office is expected to strengthen P10’s private‑credit and venture‑capital activities in the region. The firm’s global strategy emphasizes geographic diversification, and the Dubai location will enable it to source deals that may not be accessible from its existing offices. Management believes the local presence will accelerate deal flow and improve client service for Middle‑East investors.
No immediate market reaction has been reported directly tied to the office opening. Analyst sentiment around the time of the announcement was generally positive, but the available data do not link any specific market movement to the Dubai expansion.
The Dubai office positions P10 to capture new business opportunities in a fast‑growing financial ecosystem, strengthens its global client footprint, and supports the company’s long‑term growth strategy in the private‑markets space.
