Afinitas� pan African venture takes shape

Having debuted on the Botswana Stock Exchange (BSE) a little over two years ago, with just no assets under its investment portfolio, Afinitas Limited has now established full presence in Ethiopia and is actively pursuing opportunities in 12 other countries on the continent. As an emerging African investor, domiciled in Botswana, Afinitas is looking to provide seed capital and set up viable Greenfield ventures on the continent. In a wide-ranging interview at the company’s offices in the New CBD, executive director Leutlwetse Tumelo takes BusinessWeek’s BRIAN BENZA through the company’s strategy and long-term vision.
