Gambiaj.com – (BANJUL, The Gambia) – Adama Kah, a Gambian immigrant and founder of Kah Capital Management, has been named to the prestigious 2025 Power100 Asset Managers List, a distinction awarded annually by Blueprint Capital Advisors to celebrate exceptional performance and leadership in the alternative investment industry.
The announcement, made at the end of March, places Kah among an elite group of asset managers recognized for excellence in navigating complex financial markets and delivering impactful investment strategies.
The honorees, who operate across private equity, venture capital, private credit, structured equity, and GP stakes, will be celebrated at the 2nd Annual Honoree Dinner on May 4, 2025, at The Sofitel Los Angeles in Beverly Hills, California.
Blueprint Capital Advisors, a not-for-profit initiative behind the Power100, focuses on spotlighting high-performing firms and individuals who are driving change and delivering superior results in both private and public markets.
This year’s Power100 list is also a powerful reflection of diversity in finance, as it includes trailblazers from underrepresented backgrounds who are reshaping the landscape of alternative investments.
Adama Kah’s recognition stands out not only for his impressive market performance but also for his innovative approach to asset management and his commitment to broadening opportunities for emerging managers.
As an immigrant from The Gambia, Kah’s journey represents the rising impact of diverse and international professionals in shaping the future of global finance.
“Kah is emblematic of what’s possible when talent meets opportunity,” said a representative of the National Association of Investment Companies (NAIC), which praised Kah and his peers for pushing the boundaries of diversity and innovation in finance.
The 2025 Power100 list also features leading figures from major firms such as Clearlake Capital Group, Vista Equity Partners, and Ariel Alternatives—highlighting a growing shift towards inclusive excellence in an industry traditionally dominated by a narrow demographic.
Kah’s inclusion in this influential cohort underscores his firm’s ability to deliver results amid rapidly changing and often volatile markets. Under his leadership, Kah Capital Management has built a reputation for driving positive outcomes at the portfolio level while simultaneously advocating for greater equity across the financial ecosystem.
Beyond Wall Street, the work of Kah and his fellow honorees is also being felt in broader society. Their success stories are helping to narrow societal gaps in gender, ethnicity, wealth, health, and education—further reinforcing the role of diverse leaders in building a more inclusive economy.
As the alternatives space continues to evolve, Adama Kah’s recognition as a 2025 Power100 Asset Manager cements his status as a force for both financial performance and meaningful change.
