Ben Harburg, managing partner, MSA Capital, said, "The combination of high mobile penetration, high ARPU, and a large youth population, coupled with substantial market white space, evidenced by factors such as low ecommerce penetration levels and large unbanked populations, offer an ideal opportunity for investment. We believe that the Mena region is nearing an inflection point that can be accelerated through the adoption of Chinese-inspired mobile-first business models.
MSA Capital的执行合伙人Ben Harburg说：“高移动普及率，高ARPU和庞大的年轻人口，再加上大量的市场空白，结合了较低的电子商务普及率水平和庞大的无银行人口群体，这证明了 我们认为，美纳地区正接近拐点，可以通过采用中国启发性的移动优先业务模式来加快这一拐点。
He further added, “We are proud to partner with Al Salam Bank-Bahrain to establish MEC Ventures, and see Bahrain as a hyper-efficient, user-friendly gateway to the Mena region, where we can collaborate with regulators, entrepreneurs, and strategic corporate partners to pilot new business models and serve as a hub for regional expansion."

Previously, Al Waha fund of funds, the investment vehicle owned by the Bahrain government's sovereign fund, Mumtalakat, raised their $100 million investment fund in 2018. In May this year, it was reported that they have already deployed over half of that capital. In October last month, they announced that they would invest in the $250 million fund by China’s MSA Capital. Overall, Bahrain and China have been developing stronger relations to strengthen their foothold in the Middle East business ecosystem.
此前，巴林政府主权基金Mumtalakat拥有的投资工具Al Waha基金在2018年筹集了1亿美元的投资基金。据报道，今年5月，他们已经动用了超过一半的资本。他们在上个月的10月宣布，他们将投资中国MSA Capital的这只2.5亿美元的基金。总体而言，巴林和中国一直在发展更牢固的关系，以加强在中东商业生态系统中的立足点。
