Why Africa?
Why now?

Africa is on the cusp of becoming the demographic and economic engine of the world. Wonderful, long-established businesses listed on the continent’s stock exchanges are selling at valuations a tiny fraction of what comparable companies sell for in developed markets. With boots on the ground in Frontier African markets full time, we find them and buy stakes in them for you. 5 years in we are compounding investors’ money at better than 20% per annum.
