Dubai International Capital LLC, an investment company owned by the emirate’s ruler, appointed David Smoot as chief executive officer, replacing Anand Krishnan, who retired, the company said.

Smoot, 41, was promoted from his role as chief investment officer, which he held for two years, Dubai International said in an e-mailed statement today. Smoot, previously a managing director at Morgan Stanley, is the chairman of three firms in which the Dubai company has investments, according to the statement.
