Our primary objective is, as far as possible, to 'endogenise' African growth and therefore, first and foremost, to ensure that the African business community benefits from the operations and investment opportunities we are working on.

When the necessary investments or partnerships ultimately involve an actor from outside Africa, we immediately broaden our scope of investigation to all continents, without any particular preference for Europe. Indeed, we are also active in the Gulf countries, where the desire for investment in Africa is currently strong.

Finally, when possible, we also engage with the African diaspora in Europe regarding issues and opportunities in Africa. Given this more individualized approach, the issues addressed to diaspora members are limited in scope or based on the specific expertise they can offer.
