WHY WE WERE FOUNDED

Filling a real gap in the Maldivian market.

Maldivian businesses have historically struggled to access structured capital raising support. Most financial services were bank-led, leaving limited options for businesses seeking equity, bonds, or complex financing without taking on traditional debt.
Investors faced a similar challenge — few structured, professionally managed investment vehicles existed to deploy capital into the local economy. Rausmal was founded to bridge both gaps: as an independent adviser for businesses, and as a regulated fund manager for investors.
