Rabeel Warraich

About

Rabeel started his career as an investment banker with Morgan Stanley in 2008. His work in M&A included a $9.6B buy-side role, as well as a $3.5B debt restructuring deal. He later worked for the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation (GIC) as Vice President of Private Equity (Direct Investments). At GIC, he deployed over $3B, and generated an IRR of 22% in local currency. In 2016, Rabeel had started investing his own savings in venture deals in Pakistan as part of a syndicate. Sighting a plethora of opportunity and lack of institutionalized investing in this asset class, Rabeel made the move to Pakistan and set up the first fund of its nature dedicated to the Pakistani opportunity. In 2019, Sarmayacar’s first fund closed at $25m, and included participation from local and foreign HNWIs, diaspora Pakistanis and DFIs such as the IFC.
