SAFRIK

SAFRIK Investments is a private investment company focusing on the African market. SAFRIK Investments is involved in a full range of investment types, including start-up investments, growth equity investments, structured investments in listed entities and leveraged acquisitions across Africa. The company has also managed funds on behalf of a range of investors including large multinationals and several large U.S. companies. Our team has significant experience in a wide range of industries and investment types : leveraged buyouts, recapitalizations, joint ventures, venture capital start-scene, restructuring and strategic investments listed shares. Just as important, our team members have significant operational expertise from our collective participation in the conceptualization, creation and development of several new companies in different markets and have played a role in critical operations and business turnarounds. We believe that the combination of SAFRIK Investments' deep knowledge of the African market, extensive investment experience, the ability to add value to the portfolio company operations and solid network of reliable and trusted local financial and industrial contacts are key assets to best identify and execute on attractive investment opportunities in the region. SAFRIK investment managers believe the company is well positioned to serve as a "bridge" between Africa on the one hand, and Europe and North America, on the other. Our approach provides opportunities to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns in the complex but relatively inefficient and uncompetitive region while at the same time contributing to socio-economic development of the continent.
