Who We Are

Impact Focused

We are impact-led – we work on opportunities in Africa and other markets where capital and expertise combine to solve challenges that transform various communities.

Collaborative

We partner with entrepreneurs, investors, and corporates to create exceptional companies and deliver impactful projects.

Performance Driven

We are performance-driven – the project or opportunity must generate above-market returns, or we won’t get involved.

Our Approach

We are analytical people first and foremost. We overlay our thought process with our investment skills. We think creatively, make observations about the environment we operate in, and come up with ideas that transform into strong businesses.
Our Strategy
  • We spend incredible time truly understanding the opportunity, the risks, and the potential returns before participating. We “read between the lines” to get the full picture.
  • We focus on all stages of a company’s cycle, from its inception to international expansion, by drawing on experience in growth private equity and assessment.
  • Our approach differs across verticals, and we make use of our Africa and European market understanding and long-term capital appreciation strategy.
Our Philosophy
  • We focus on opportunities that offer superior returns with less commensurate risk.
  • We maintain a long-term perspective over short-term performance.
  • We have a value-oriented mindset—capitalizing on mispriced assets and opportunities that are under the radar. We are entrepreneurs with deep investment skills.

Our Business

Our strength lies in our ability to work closely with all types of players in Africa to identify and create value. We have two areas of focus:

Strategic Advisory – We advise investors, governments, and companies on creating and capturing value in Africa and other markets.

Strategic Financing – We provide, source, or collaborate with companies needing financing for specific opportunities.

Our experience includes:

Knowledge of African Markets

With years of executing transactions in Africa, we know the region well and bring a unique understanding to what we do.

Ability to Identify Opportunities

We have evaluated hundreds of companies and projects. Our relationships with entrepreneurs and managers in Africa afford Seavest the ability to find the best opportunities.

Experience in Value Creation

We have helped companies grow. We bring relevant and globally accepted perspectives and expertise to help managers and business owners build their businesses.

Our Perspective

Why this region?

From a pure investment standpoint, Africa has many of the world's fastest-growing economies, driven by demographics, urbanization, and resource demand. It is also the least developed continent, where capital is scarce. Africa is a market where investors truly experience the value private capital creates and its lasting impact.

It requires a unique approach

Judgment calls and context are important due to the environment’s nature, where there are more gaps in information. You need to be much more of a first-principles investor—organizing and interpreting information with the right context rather than simply using investment tools in a vacuum.

Impact is most felt here

To have a lasting impact in Africa, we must have an entrepreneurial mindset. As a starting point, we believe investors must focus on identifying the challenges facing the region. This is where the opportunity lies, and then we build a business or corporate structure around it.
