In 2017, we set out on a bold journey in Abu Dhabi, driven by a clear goal: to become the most trusted and sought-after corporate and professional services provider.
Today, as we mark our 8th anniversary in 2025, we are not just marking another milestone. We are reflecting on a year that defined our evolution; expanding into new jurisdictions, deepening our expertise, and reinforcing the trust that always defined us.
2024: A Year of Expansion and Impact – From DIFC to QFC, Scaling New Heights Together
The year 2024 kicked off on a global stage. In January, MS attended the World Economic Forum in Davos, engaging in key discussions with UAE leadership. More than just an event, reaffirming our strategic direction and setting the tone for a transformative year ahead.
While milestones mark progress, strategy shapes the direction. Over the past year, we didn’t just expand, we have done so with intent. By strengthening our presence across key jurisdictions in the Gulf, we’ve reinforced our position as a trusted Corporate Services Provider (CSP).
Strengthening our presence in DIFC reinforced our position as a trusted advisor in one of the world’s leading financial hubs. This wasn’t just about expanding our reach; it was about providing businesses with the guidance, expertise, and strategic support they need to succeed in a changing landscape.
But we didn’t stop there. In 2025, MS made its next defining move with our entry into the Qatar Financial Centre (QFC). Not just another milestone, but a promise to businesses in the region that they have a partner who understands their journey and is ready to grow with them.
Today, MS proudly operates across all English common law jurisdictions in the Gulf, ensuring businesses have a reliable partner wherever they grow. But at its core, this journey isn’t about numbers on a map. It’s about the businesses we empower, the relationships we build, and the trust we earn.
With every expansion, every partnership, and every success story, we continue to grow and build on the foundation of trust and impact we’ve created.
MS: Beyond Borders and Beyond Business
While geographic growth is important, true expansion for us has always meant understanding and addressing the challenges businesses face today in the region while anticipating the demands of tomorrow.
Over the past year, we’ve seen an increasing need for visionary leadership. Organizations weren’t simply looking to fill executive roles; they were seeking visionary leaders capable of driving transformation in the region. In response to this growing demand, we strengthened our Executive Search solutions, ensuring that businesses have access to the right talent to navigate change, seize opportunities, and lead with confidence.
Eight Years Strong and the Journey Ahead
“Eight years in, and MS is not just growing but we’re evolving. Our journey has never been about a single milestone; it’s about expanding in every direction. From stepping into new jurisdictions to broadening our service lines, we are scaling with purpose. Every move brings us closer to a larger vision: a fully integrated, future-ready solutions provider for family offices, private clients, and institutions across the GCC and beyond. Growth isn’t just about where we go; it’s about how we elevate every client, every industry, and every opportunity along the way. Here’s to the next chapter of MS: bigger, bolder, and beyond.”
- C A Mohammed Shafeek, Founder & Group CEO
This journey wouldn’t be complete without our people. Behind every expansion, every partnership, and every success story is the team that makes MS what it is today. Their expertise, resilience, and vision drive us forward, ensuring we continue to elevate businesses, industries, and communities.
The road ahead is filled with new opportunities, and we’re ready to embrace them.
Here’s to the next frontier. Let’s Elevate with MS.
