GCC private credit is scaling. The operational infrastructure is not.

Private credit in the Gulf is maturing rapidly. Regulatory frameworks in DIFC, ADGM, and Saudi Arabia are attracting institutional capital. Fund sizes are growing. Deal complexity is increasing. But the teams managing these funds still operate on spreadsheets, email threads, and manual processes that do not scale.

No purpose-built operational stack

GCC credit funds run deal flow on spreadsheets, track covenants in Excel, store documents across shared drives, and coordinate due diligence over email. There is no single system that holds the operational truth of the fund.

Shariah compliance is manual and fragmented

AAOIFI structure mapping, SSB coordination, fatwa condition tracking, and purification calculations are handled through external advisors and ad hoc processes. Nothing is centralized. Nothing is auditable in one place.

Growth requires headcount, not leverage

Every new deal means more analyst hours on DD extraction, credit analysis, covenant monitoring, and reporting. There is no way to increase deal velocity without proportionally increasing team size.

Two pillars. One operational truth.

Safqa brings together two layers that do not exist in combination anywhere else for private credit.

System of Record

The structured, versioned, auditable database where every deal, counterparty, covenant, cash event, compliance item, and document lives. Relational, not flat files. Versioned, not overwritten. Every state change tracked. The single source of truth for your fund's operations.

Agent Ecosystem

Specialized AI agents that execute credit fund workflows: market research, originations, credit analysis, underwriting, covenant monitoring, risk analytics, compliance tracking, and Shariah structuring. Every agent reads from and writes to the system of record. Every output is stored, versioned, and auditable.

The agents produce the work. The system of record holds the truth. Together, they give your fund a complete, reconstructable operational history for every deal and every portfolio position.

Full lifecycle coverage. Institutional-grade deliverables at every stage.

Agents: Compliance and Operations, Shariah

Every workflow, Shariah-ready.

The Shariah layer is a cross-cutting overlay, not a separate module. When a deal or fund requires Islamic compliance, it activates across every relevant workflow. A single fund can manage conventional and Shariah-compliant deals in the same portfolio.

Structure Selection

Analysis and recommendation across Murabaha, Ijara, Diminishing Musharaka, and Sukuk structures. Each recommendation mapped against applicable AAOIFI standards (FAS 2/28, FAS 4, FAS 8/32, FAS 17/33).

SSB Coordination

Preparation of Shariah Supervisory Board presentation materials, fatwa request documentation, and condition tracking. All materials formatted for SSB review workflows.

Ongoing Compliance

Fatwa condition monitoring integrated into portfolio surveillance. Shariah compliance status tracked alongside financial covenants. Automated alerts when conditions require attention.

Purification

Automated purification calculations at deal and portfolio level. Auditable methodology. Charity allocation tracking.

All Shariah outputs are analytical support for qualified review. Safqa does not issue fatwas or binding Shariah opinions.
