Abraaj Group, the specialist emerging markets investor, has held a final close on its first fund dedicated to investing in Turkey, less than a fortnight after an attempted military coup brought fresh instability to the country.

Abraaj said in a July 26 statement it had raised $486 million as well as a further $40 million for co-investments, having initially targeted $500 million.
