Baraca Capital Hosts Stockholm Briefing on Global Property Strategy

STOCKHOLM | 17–18 JANUARY 2026

On 17 and 18 January 2026, Baraca Capital convened Swedish investors at the Scandic Victoria Tower in Stockholm for a two-day Build Your Portfolio live event, continuing its international series focused on cross-border property positioning and long-term capital strategy.

The Stockholm sessions reflected a clear evolution in how Nordic investors are engaging with international real estate. With domestic markets increasingly constrained by regulation, taxation, and limited growth, the discussion centered on how global property exposure is assessed, structured, and executed in practice.

Entrepreneurs, professionals, and experienced investors approached the event with specific questions and defined objectives. The focus was not on market narratives, but on how international property decisions are evaluated when capital, jurisdiction, and long-term planning intersect.

Why Dubai Is Part of the Stockholm Conversation

The opening sessions set the tone by addressing why Dubai continues to attract sustained international attention. Baraca Capital provided context on the Dubai Masterplan 2040 and the regulatory and urban frameworks shaping the market’s long-term direction.

Rather than focusing on short-term cycles, the discussion examined how infrastructure planning, governance, and developer execution influence market behavior over time, and why these factors matter when Swedish investors look beyond Europe.

Perspectives from Baraca Capital’s Advisory Team

Baraca Capital’s advisory team led the sessions, offering a clear view into how international property strategies are approached by investors operating across borders.

Rudaw Hama and Rano Hama, Portfolio Advisors at Baraca Capital, provided step-by-step clarity on how Swedish investors typically navigate the Dubai market. Their sessions focused on evaluating developer credibility, understanding financing and ownership pathways, and clarifying the factors investors should assess before committing capital internationally.

Where Access Makes the Difference

As part of the program, Sobha Realty, one of Baraca Capital’s developer partners, shared insight into its active and upcoming projects in Dubai. With more than 11 million square meters delivered across the UAE, Sobha served as a reference point for build quality, execution standards, and long-term durability.

Sobha is one of several established developers Baraca Capital works with across markets. These partnerships are designed to give investors access to vetted projects, direct insight, and a broader set of options than those typically visible through public channels. By working with a range of credible developers, Baraca enables investors to compare opportunities, understand differences in execution, and make informed decisions based on substance rather than presentation.

Beyond the Asset

The Stockholm discussions extended beyond individual projects. Sessions addressed legal considerations, ownership structures, taxation implications, and residency-related questions that often arise when Swedish investors explore international property.

The emphasis remained on how cross-border decisions are structured and executed in practice, including how tax exposure, jurisdictional differences, and reporting obligations should be considered before capital moves internationally.

What This Signals

The Stockholm event underscored the level of preparation and clarity Swedish investors now bring to international conversations. The questions raised were practical, informed, and forward-looking, reflecting a market that is actively positioning for global exposure.

At Baraca Capital, our role is to support these decisions by providing access, perspective, and structured advisory across markets.

Every international strategy begins with a clear conversation.
