Rabi Global — International Advisory & Holdings Group

01 The Firm

A privately held advisory and holdings group.

Rabi Global is built around its advisory and holding companies in the United Kingdom and Cyprus. They advise a select group of companies, founders, and private clients on complex international matters — corporate structuring, governance, taxation, and financial operations — and they own and actively manage the group's subsidiaries and investments across several markets. The group is not a passive investor: it takes an active role in directing the companies it holds and the capital it deploys.

The group operates through teams in the UK and Cyprus, a substantial base in Madeira and Lisbon spanning real estate, advisory, and Portuguese development subsidiaries, financial activity in Geneva, operations in Milan, and collaborations in the Gulf and Israel. Legal, financial, and strategic expertise sit within a single structure, so that decisions are assessed within one integrated framework rather than passed between firms.

Our work regularly involves coordination with leading international law firms, accounting networks, financial institutions, and Big Four professionals across multiple jurisdictions. Many of our client relationships have been maintained over many years — a measure of the trust placed in the group's judgement and discretion.

Fiduciary and corporate services for privately held structures — the holding, administration, and stewardship of companies and assets on a long-term basis.

Principal Investments & Holdings

05 Leadership

The people behind the group.

David Rabi (Dudi)

Founder & Principal

David is the founder and principal of Rabi Global. A qualified lawyer, he is also Chief Executive of Yard Properties, the group's Portuguese development company, which originates and delivers large-scale residential projects across Portugal.

He serves as an executive director of a financial institution in Geneva, and holds board positions across a number of companies, including ventures in AI and medtech. Alongside these roles, he advises companies internationally, working in coordination with some of the world's leading law and accounting firms.

A lawyer admitted to the Israel Bar Association, David was the founding partner of a Tel Aviv law firm from 2010 to 2023, which he built into an internationally focused practice — representing banks, financial institutions, high-growth founders, and private clients on cross-border taxation, financial services, fintech, and complex corporate transactions, including a decade advising companies in the digital-assets sector.

That experience is the foundation of Rabi Global. Today his focus is the group's strategic direction, its international operations, and its investments and real estate activities in Portugal.

A senior chartered accountant with over two decades of experience in real estate across the UK and international markets, he has held leading financial and executive roles on large-scale property and development projects.
