ShaikhTech, a Middle East-based technology company involved in proptech, announced the beta launch of AmanaVest, a global investment access platform designed to help individuals and institutional investors around the world explore select real estate and other investment opportunities in Saudi Arabia.
The name “AmanaVest” comes from the Arabic words “Amana” meaning trust and “Vest” meaning investment, and reflects the platform’s founding principles of enabling investment with trust, transparency and responsibility, the company said in a statement.
The launch was officially announced by ShaikhTech CEO Zeeshan Shaikh at the 2026 Real Estate Future Forum held in Riyadh, one of the world’s leading international real estate and investment gatherings.
This highlighted the platform’s position within Saudi Arabia’s evolving real estate and foreign investment ecosystem.
The announcement of the launch of AmanaVest’s invitation-only beta is in direct response to the Saudi Foreign Real Estate Ownership Regulations issued this month, ShaikhTech said in a statement.
Participants admitted at this stage will be recognized as founding members of the AmanaVest platform and will receive early access privileges and long-term platform benefits, it said.
AmanaVest began operating in a private, invite-only access phase purposefully structured to ensure quality, transparency, and integrity as the platform is carefully scaled prior to a broader release, AmanaVest said in a statement.
The initial rollout will focus on Madinah and Riyadh, he added, adding that access to other major cities such as Mecca, Jeddah and Dammam will also be expanded in stages.
“Saudi Arabia is entering a new historical chapter as its real estate market opens up to the world,” Zeeshan said.
“This is a generational opportunity to connect global capital with the world’s most dynamic development stories. Through AmanaVest, we are building a trusted, technology-enabled bridge to Saudi Arabia’s expanding cities, making high-quality real estate investments more accessible, transparent and institutionally robust for global investors,” he said.
AmanaVest has been developed as a technology-enabled discovery and accelerator platform that allows participants to explore opportunities by city, asset type, and investment profile within a secure invitation-based environment.
The platform features comprehensive search and discovery tools designed specifically for foreign investors seeking access to the Saudi real estate market, as well as access to ownership structures including freehold, long-term leasehold and timeshare options, subject to applicable regulations and project-specific conditions.
He added that all opportunities through the platform are structured to comply with Islamic law in line with Islamic financial principles and applicable local regulations. -TradeArabia News Service
