| AfricanSelect was founded with the primary objective of providing a single investment platform for international
investors including the African Diaspora to take part in investment opportunities across the continent. The company
currently primarily serves retail investors but plans to grow its service offering to include international
corporate investors.
To deliver its investment services the company has selected to pursue a strategy of partnering with local investment and
stock brokering company's across the continent to leverage their local expertise in providing superior investment opportunities
to global investors. Through these partnerships AfricanSelect is able to focus its resources at developing
and supporting a superior investment platform that is easy to use, accurate and offers a wide array of features to a broad
group of investment clients whose goals vary broadly.
Today the company offers services that allow its clients to primarily invest in equity (stock) instruments in several
stock exchanges in Africa. With growing expertise and broader partnerships the company plans to offer a broad range
of investment instruments including debt (bonds) and mutual funds (unit trusts) to its clients. The company also plans
to grow its market coverage to encompass all the stock exchanges across the continent, from the smallest and newest such
as the Cape Verde Stock Exchange to the largest and most capitalized such as the Johannesburg and Cairo stock exchanges.
