His Highness Shaikh Mohammed Bin Sultan Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan, a member of the Abu Dhabi royal family, has acquired warrants to purchase 6.75 million ordinary shares in ESG technology firm Diginex Ltd. for $300 million in a private transaction, the company said on Tuesday.

The investment was made through Shaikh Mohammed’s wholly owned holding company, Nomas Global Investments LLC – SPC, and strengthens ties between the UAE and Diginex, a London-based firm focused on regulatory technology for sustainable finance.

Diginex said the deal includes an initial $50 million already received and a further $250 million due by the end of the year.

If all warrants are exercised, Diginex will receive around $69.2 million, and Shaikh Mohammed would hold roughly 22.7 percent of the company’s outstanding ordinary shares, based on current figures.

Three-Tranche Structure and Strategic Expansion

The warrants are structured in three tranches, with strike prices ranging from $8.20 to $12.30 per share and expirations extending up to 24 months from January 2025.

The transaction builds on a strategic alliance announced in March between Diginex and Nomas Global, which includes plans for a dual listing on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange and a possible capital raise of up to $250 million.

“This investment is a powerful testament to our shared vision of leveraging cutting-edge technology to address sustainability challenges,” Diginex Chairman Miles Pelham said in a statement.

“This acquisition reflects my belief in Diginex’s potential to drive meaningful impact in sustainable finance,” Shaikh Mohammed said.

Diginex uses blockchain, artificial intelligence and data analytics to support ESG reporting across frameworks such as the Global Reporting Initiative, the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board and the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures.

The company has positioned itself as a leader in digital compliance tools that help businesses and governments meet global sustainability goals.
