Beschreibung
Participation in three funds (East, West and Southern Africa) established for the purpose of making equity and quasi-equity investments in SMEs in Sub-Saharan Africa that demonstrate strong potential for profitable growth and regional expansion.
Ziele
The aim is to encourage private initiative in industry and service related investments. At present, growth of SMEs in Africa has been inhibited partly by the lack of private equity capital. The Aureos funds are designed to serve a useful function in not only promoting private sector growth but also in institutional capacity building and, potentially, capital markets development. The proposed operation would therefore support the creation of jobs and help to improve the general economic situation in Sub-Saharan Africa.
