Direct Investment
Direct investment refers to a situation where private equity investors invest directly into a specific company or project, rather than through an intermediary fund.
An investor directly invests in a halal food processing company under a Musharakah agreement. The investor reviews the company’s activities, financing methods, and contracts to ensure Shari’ah compliance, and then shares profits or losses based on capital contribution.
Simple summary:
👉 Direct investment gives maximum control and Shari’ah assurance, but demands more effort, expertise, and risk from the investor.
