Investcorp, a leading global provider and manager of alternative investment products, said it had made two real estate equity acquisitions and one debt-financing investment in seven high-quality office properties across key markets in the US.
The transactions equate to more than 900,000 square feet of real estate and the combined investment totals over $ 140 million.
The two acquisitions represent three properties in the Keystone Office Park located in Raleigh, North Carolina and one property in the Duke Bridges office park complex located in Frisco, Texas, a suburb of Dallas.
Investcorp also acquired a mezzanine loan secured by two office properties located in the Denver, Colorado suburb of Lakewood.
These transactions reflect Investcorp’s commitment to invest through both equity and debt financing in high-quality, stable real estate assets at attractive valuations, and in close proximity to commercial and economic hubs.
The properties, with occupancy rates in excess of 95 percent, are leased by longstanding tenants including; the National Institute of Health, in Raleigh; Oracle, in Frisco and; the law firm BakerHostetler, in Lakewood.
Mohammed Al-Shroogi, president, Gulf Business, said: “Our real estate team has a proven track record of finding high-quality assets in metropolitan communities with strong diversified employment and economic growth above national levels that provide stable and attractive cash flows. These transactions are consistent with that theme.”
Al-Shroogi added: “Office properties in high growth markets with strong demand generators are on the rebound, and can be purchased at better valuations than similar properties in major cities. Rooted in our value-oriented investment approach, we also see significant opportunities for high-quality, performing debt investments that can be acquired or originated at attractive yields.”

Cadbury Dairy Milk goes 'Irresistible'
Cadbury Dairy Milk is inviting chocolate lovers to discover something new with the launch of Irresistible — a range created to make every bite feel special, elevated and multi-sensory.
The Irresistible range adds generous, indulgent fillings that bring depth, texture, and warmth to every moment. It’s indulgence redefined. A little extra joy. And a reminder that great chocolate should always feel like a treat.
Irresistible Nutty Cream: Simple. Rich. Completely satisfying. Beneath the classic Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate is a smooth, nutty cream filling that melts beautifully before revealing a gentle crunch. The result is a perfectly balanced bite—creamy, comforting, and quietly indulgent.
Irresistible Sticky Toffee: Inspired by beloved dessert flavors, this variant wraps smooth Dairy Milk chocolate around layers of caramel-flavored crème, soft caramel, and salted toffee pieces. Chewy and deeply comforting, it’s designed to be enjoyed slowly—or shared in moments that matter.
Available in slices and minis, it brings a little indulgence to any time of day.
Lisa Roberts, head of marketing for the Gulf, Saudi Arabia and developing markets at Mondelez said: “This launch reflects our passion for innovation and our commitment to creating the best experiences for our consumers.
