The Egypt Mid-Cap Fund was established by Ezdehar Management in 2014 in response to unmet demand for investment in Egypt following the Arab Spring, particularly in the less penetrated SME segment.

The fund manager team comprises Egyptian nationals who have a mix of investment and operational experience both in Egypt and internationally.

The fund has a target size of $100 million with a hard cap of $120 million.
