Quiet Gatekeepers Hold Keys to $1.5 Trillion UAE Royal

The UAE’s Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan oversees more than $1.5 trillion in state assets and private funds. He’s also one of the deputy rulers of the Abu Dhabi emirate, the national security adviser, a brother of the UAE’s president and the son of the country’s founding father. Scoring even a 10-minute meet-and-greet with him is a huge opportunity for a money manager or financier.
