Finances
"Give me a fulcrum and I shall move the world" Archimedes What are finances if not a type of infrastructure – a "fulcrum" for nearly every significant action in our world? The financial dimension has a crucial influence on individual, national and global reality, from the basic means of survival to groundbreaking, highly visionary national enterprises. Financial expertise and personal empowerment provide individuals, communities, cities and entire countries with a leverage point for development, growth and prosperity, both in the near term and for the benefit of coming generations. Arison Investments mobilizes its knowledge and expertise, its resources, strength and financial stability for the establishment of future growth platforms in our world. We are active in a broad variety of financial activities, and our investment policy emphasizes the encouragement of wide-ranging initiatives in the field of sustainability. We work for the creation, enhancement and management of financial infrastructures and life systems, in cooperation with countries, institutions and local organizations throughout the world.
Real Estate and Infrastructures
Real estate and residential, industrial, transport and energy infrastructures are an integral part of life for every society in the 21st century. This field combines vast capital investments and high financial returns with the development of solutions for universal human needs. We believe that only comprehensive planning of modern infrastructures grounded in a broad overview of the entire system – individuals, communities and the environment – can ensure the integration of a high standard of living and a high quality of life over time. The fields of real estate and infrastructure make up a significant proportion of Arison Investments’ global activities. We view the development of advanced infrastructures while preserving the harmony of nature as an essential challenge. We see all the various fields of infrastructure as one complex system, in which we implement our values of sustainability. Smart planning and building are accomplished through green construction, which incorporates consideration of all aspects of life systems development – from the wise use of available resources from wind and sunlight to advanced systems for treating water. These natural sources of renewable energy also serve to produce clean energy in the advanced facilities we are initiating and setting up around the world, using innovative applications of existing technologies.
Water
Water is the source of life. Over 70 percent of the Earth’s surface is covered by water, but only 0.5 percent of this water is suitable for human consumption. The growth of population in general, and in urban areas in particular, our improved quality of life and global warming make it imperative to increase the amount of usable water and improve its quality. Even today, many populations around the world find it difficult to access this vital resource, whose price is continuously on the rise. We invest in the development of new methods and means for the collection, production and delivery of water, which will enable the preservation and betterment of this natural bounty, and ensure its availability wherever it is needed. Arison Investments has set for itself the goal of being the world leader in this field. The company invests in linking, adapting and managing existing solutions, in developing new solutions and in creating practical, efficient methods to complement existing solutions in order to create integrated solutions that have wide-scale effects. In this way, consumers will have access to the quantity and quality of water they need. For those with far-reaching vision, the future is already here.

We welcome any opportunity to promote initiatives and partnerships for global business.

For those with far-reaching vision, the future is already here. The signs, trends and possibilities are being revealed right before our eyes.
