Nemir Amin Kirdar[1] (28 October 1936[2] – 8 June 2020) was an Iraqi banker, billionaire, businessman, financier and author. As a founding father of private equity, and an economic and cultural bridge-builder, he was the founder and CEO of Investcorp, a global alternative investment group that operates in Manama, New York, London, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Doha, and Singapore.[3] He spent much of his life in London, and held British citizenship.[4] He was of Iraqi Turkmen background from Kirkuk.[5]
Early life
Kirdar was born in Kirkuk, Iraq, to the influential Turkmen Kirdar family, who were prominent in the politics of the late Ottoman Empire and interwar Iraq. He completed his primary education at Baghdad's Saadoun School, his secondary education at the Jesuit-run Baghdad College, and his initial university education at Robert College in Istanbul, initially studying engineering then switching to economics and liberal arts. He envisioned to pursue a political career in his native Iraq, but after a military coup overthrew the Iraqi monarchy in 1958, Kirdar left Iraq to the United States where his cousins lived. Having only completed three out of four years at Robert College, he had to find a new university that would accept him into the final year for an economics degree.
