INVESTMENT THEMES

Across the African continent we witness economic and social developments that provide opportunities for people to grow and improve their livelihoods.  By creating an inclusive economy we can resolve the major social, political and environmental problems of today.

An inclusive economy is the economic activity that enables citizens and businesses to create and retain value within their own communities. Inclusive growth is defined as economic growth and development that enables lower income segments to gain access to basic goods and services – at more accessible price points and of a higher quality than was previously possible.

Investments in inclusive economy solve social and/or environmental issues while generating financial returns. Typical basic goods and services at support the growth of an inclusive economy are financial services, energy, housing, health, education, water and food. That is why Goodwell Investment invests in companies that contribute to inclusive growth in the majority world of Africa.

We have a long track record in financial inclusion.  Based on this strong foundation we get more and more involved in technology developments, particularly in digital and mobile platforms, as these have boosted inclusive growth in developing African markets over the past several years.
