Africa Israel Investments Ltd. (TASE: AFIL) is an international holding and investment company based in Israel. Africa-Israel Investments is owned by Lev Leviev who purchased the controlling interest in the company in 1997 from Bank Leumi. Africa Israel has extensive real estate investments in Russia, the US, as well as a 26% stake in Dor Alon, an Israeli conglomerate involved mainly in the oil sector.
It also has holdings in the construction, telecommunications, energy and leisure industries.
The company became the subject of newspaper coverage in 2008 for Leviev's association with the construction of Israeli settlements on the West Bank at a time when the British Embassy in Israel was planning to move into the Kirya Tower, one of its buildings.
