Qatar Investment Authority backs UK - Telegraph

Qatar Investment Authority backs UK - Telegraph:



"The head of one of the world's largest sovereign wealth funds says the UK remains a "main destination" for investment despite doubts about the country's future in the European Union and the outcome of the general election next year.



Ahmad Al-Sayed, chief executive of the Qatar Investment Authority, said the fund was a "long-term investor" and stressed it was committed to London and the UK.



Mr Al-Sayed was speaking at Harrods, which the QIA bought for about £1.5bn in 2010, as the department store unveiled a new glass chandelier in its grand hall entrance.



He said it was a symbol of QIA's efforts to modernise the famous Knightsbridge store after buying it from Mohamed Al Fayed."
