A responsible investor in constant motion
Founded in 1995 by Moulay Hafid Elalamy, Saham is a private investment company with a presence in Casablanca, Dubai, and Luxembourg owned by the Elalamy family. Marked by a strong entrepreneurial spirit, Saham initially developed in the insurance sector to become a leader on the African continent. After divesting the Insurance division in 2018, Saham evolved into an international player with multi-sector expertise, capitalizing on targeted strategic partnerships.
Today, Saham owns a portfolio of five companies. Saham has embraced a strong and visionary entrepreneurial approach, enabling diversification into high-potential sectors such as financial services, customer experience, real estate, education, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and media.
Our portfolio reflects diversity in sectors focused on human and business services. Since 2018, Saham has actively shifted towards financial services, outsourced services, real estate, education, and agriculture, withdrawing from previous sectors such as insurance, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals.
