First African Investment Holding
PDI has developed a new and innovative holding concept to support the future needs of growing African economies and is inviting partners to invest in the First African Investment Holding managed fund. The rationale behind the invitation is to develop a technology conglomerate to target and capitalise on European high-tech companies, realising high growth synergies between companies that the fund invests in and African growth markets.
Over the last few decades, the lack of substantial collaboration between African economies and governments, and European technology companies, has become apparent. Bridging this untapped gap, First African Investment Holding will create substantial future growth by applying strict investment criteria and providing access to an extensive sales network within Africa.
Only companies with high performance potential in the African region will be considered as investment targets. Investment examples are suppliers of reliable PicoPV systems and robust water purification solutions, etc.
African Growth Opportunities
Over the past 10 years, African countries have recorded high growth rates and have handled the global economic crisis rather favourably compared to other emerging economies. The long-term risk adjusted returns are represent a comparative advantage when assessed against developed countries and are comparable to frontier markets.
