Stone Street Capital · Dubai
Developing institutional cross-border equity and depositary receipt strategies delivered through a network of regulated execution, custody and market infrastructure partners.
The Opportunity
Emerging and offshore equity markets continue to attract record allocations from sovereign wealth funds and institutional managers. Yet direct, USD-denominated access remains operationally complex — fragmented infrastructure, multi-layered regulation, and inefficient currency exposure stand between capital and opportunity.
The Friction
Accessing offshore equity in their local form requires investors to navigate currency controls, regulatory frameworks, and fragmented settlement infrastructure — each introducing cost, delay, and execution risk.
Capital deployed locally remains exposed to FX volatility, while conversion pathways back to USD are tightly governed.
Each transaction touches a broker, custodian, depository, and depositary bank — fragmented onboarding multiplies cost and time.
Local settlement systems operate independently of international clearing — creating reconciliation gaps that institutional capital cannot tolerate.
Our Framework
Stone Street Capital develops proprietary market frameworks designed to facilitate efficient participation in selected cross-border equity markets through established financial market infrastructure and appropriately authorised counterparties.
The framework brings together independent market participants, custody networks, execution providers and settlement infrastructure within a coordinated institutional operating model.
Utilising recognised market infrastructure and independent regulated financial institutions.
Designed around established international market mechanisms.
Supporting efficient interaction between execution, custody and settlement participants.
Built upon long-term relationships with specialist financial institutions operating across multiple jurisdictions.
Our Framework
Stone Street Capital develops proprietary institutional frameworks designed to facilitate efficient interaction between recognised financial market infrastructure, independent regulated financial institutions and specialist market participants operating across multiple jurisdictions.
The illustration below provides a simplified overview of a typical institutional operating framework. The specific structure adopted for any transaction depends upon the relevant jurisdiction, counterparties and applicable regulatory requirements.
Institutional relationships, commercial documentation and operational readiness established between participating counterparties.
Access to local and international markets facilitated through independent, appropriately authorised market participants.
Established international depositary receipt mechanisms support cross-border market interoperability where appropriate.
Recognised international custody and settlement systems facilitate efficient post-trade processing across jurisdictions.
Stone Street Capital's proprietary framework is designed to coordinate interaction between market participants, while regulated activities remain the responsibility of the relevant authorised firms.
