International Holding Company (IHC) has introduced Aiden Insight 2.0, an AI-powered board observer developed in collaboration with aleria. This on-premise system is designed to provide real-time strategic analysis, enhancing the company’s governance framework.
Aiden Insight 2.0 offers a live dashboard that updates IHC’s performance, market dynamics, and global trends. Its rapid query tool, AskIHC, allows board members to access pre-analysed financial metrics and operational benchmarks instantly. The system also provides dynamic visual insights to support data-driven decision-making.
During the Q1 2025 board meeting, Aiden Insight 2.0 presented strategic recommendations following IHC’s reported revenue of AED 27.2 billion, a 41.1% increase year-on-year, and a net profit of AED 4.1 billion. The AI advised on enhancing tax planning, reinforcing the focus on information technology and artificial intelligence, maintaining capital allocation discipline, and pursuing growth in priority sectors.
Syed Basar Shueb, CEO of IHC, stated, “Aiden Insight 2.0 is a strategic cornerstone for IHC. Its on-premise, UAE-built architecture empowers our board to act with precision and security.”
Aiden Insight 2.0 is fully hosted within the UAE, ensuring data sovereignty and eliminating reliance on external cloud services. This aligns with IHC’s commitment to safeguarding sensitive information and reflects a broader trend among UAE-based investment firms integrating AI into corporate governance.
