Jared Kushner's Affinity Partners has garnered attention for investing over $1.2 billion, predominantly in firms outside the United States. This has raised concerns due to the significant foreign investment, particularly as Donald Trump, Kushner's father-in-law, makes another bid for the presidency. The fund, valued at $3 billion, is reported to be almost entirely backed by overseas investors Kushner engaged with during his tenure as a senior adviser in the Trump administration. Notably, a business partner of Kushner's is a part owner of Israel's sole domestic warship builder, and investments have been received from government wealth funds in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE. In total, 99% of the fund's capital comes from foreign sources, including major contributions from Saudi, Qatar, UAE sovereign wealth funds, and the founder of Foxconn. The situation has sparked calls for investigation, with critics pointing to the potential for leveraging presidential influence for personal gain.
