Est. 2020 · Muscat · AUM undisclosed · No Abraham Accords membership
The Oman Investment Authority (OIA) is the Sultanate's sovereign investment arm — and, like Kuwait's KIA, one of the Gulf funds with no disclosed Israel relationship, reflecting Oman's historically non-aligned diplomatic posture in the region.

Why it matters
Oman has long positioned itself as a neutral interlocutor in the region rather than a normalization participant, and OIA's public disclosures — which emphasize returns "above the global average for sovereign wealth funds" — contain no reference to Israeli assets, venture commitments, or bilateral vehicles. That places Oman alongside Kuwait as the two major Gulf sovereign funds sitting outside the commercial architecture Olam has documented around Mubadala, ADQ, the Qatar Investment Authority, and the Public Investment Fund.
