From wealth management to international investment
It all started with wealth management
It all starts in 2009. Adrien Boucher, founder of FFI, enters wealth management. Self-taught, he earns his professional certifications on his own at 18.
For years, he practises the profession in its purest form: wealth assessments, financial investments, life insurance, tax planning. He advises, he compares, he observes what really works for clients over time.
The first step abroad
In 2016, Adrien invests internationally for the first time. He discovers what mature markets no longer offer: high yields, accessible entry prices, clear taxation. He also discovers the pitfalls: fragile developers, prices inflated for foreigners, rental promises nobody guarantees.
The birth of FFI
FFI was born in 2017 with a single goal: to help our clients invest internationally, with the same rigour as a private wealth adviser.
From day one, one principle guides everything. We have no catalogue. We do not sell a developer's stock. For each client, we look for the best property and the best opportunity, based on their wealth and their goals.
Our clients come from all over the world: entrepreneurs, executives and expatriates who want to invest beyond their home market.
Markets opened, markets closed
In almost ten years, FFI has invested across four continents.
Mexico
Spain
Portugal
United States
Morocco
Albania
Poland
Estonia
Ukraine
Saudi Arabia
Georgia
United Arab Emirates
BaliWe never stay in a market out of habit. Each destination has its role:
We stay for the long term, because the fundamentals hold over time.
A window opens, we go in. It closes, we leave.
Opened for specific investors only, because their profile justified it.
Léo joins the team
In 2021, Léo Lawless joins FFI as an employee. A former high-level athlete, he worked in the City of London before joining the team. He is trained in-house in property advisory, following our method.
He develops real expertise in property management: letting, tenant follow-up, income optimisation. An investment is judged by what it yields, and Léo made it his speciality.
In 2025, he becomes a shareholder and a full partner.
From client to partner
Éric Fankhauser built a major windscreen replacement company in Switzerland. After a great success and the sale of his business, he looks to invest his capital.
He first becomes an FFI client. Then a friend. He grows more and more interested in investing, in our methods, in the markets we open. Step by step, he decides to join the team and becomes a full partner in turn.
He brings what only a business owner can: the perspective of an investor who has sat on the other side of the table.
Three partners, one acceleration
The partnership of Adrien, Léo and Éric changes FFI's scale. Three complementary profiles.
Today, FFI has more than ten advisors, plus a property management subsidiary and renovation teams. From advice to handover, everything is managed in-house.
Moving our operations to Tbilisi
In 2025, we make a bold choice: we move our operations to Tbilisi. Our headquarters remain in Dubai, but our operations centre is now in Georgia, as close as possible to the market where we invest the most.
Bringing investors to new markets
In 2026, we hold six investor conferences. Each time, the same question comes up in the room: how can you invest abroad without taking unnecessary risks? At our last event, nearly a hundred investors came for an evening dedicated to Georgia.
His Excellency Irakli Kurashvili, Ambassador of Georgia, honoured us with his presence. Recognition at the highest diplomatic level of our work in the country, and the start of a relationship we are building with Georgian institutions.
The same rule since 2017: every client has their own strategy
And never an off-the-shelf product.
Across four continents.
Three active today: Georgia, the UAE and Bali.
Plus a property management subsidiary and renovation teams.
Adrien Boucher, Léo Lawless and Éric Fankhauser.
