GENERATING SUPERIOR RETURNS FOR GLOBAL INVESTORS, IN AFRICA.





ABOUT US

Sango Capital is an investment management firm focused on delivering superior
risk-adjusted returns from fund and direct investments in Africa.

Established in 2011, the firm invests capital for global investors including
sovereign wealth fund, pension, endowment, foundation and family office clients.
The firm’s strategy combines international best practice skill sets with deep
local networks and a dedicated, on-the-ground presence to unlock unique
mid-market focused investment opportunities in Africa.




AFRICA'S OPPORTUNITY

Africa accounts for one-sixth of the world’s population, and its 54 nations
comprise a diverse, rapidly growing economic force. Despite this, nearly all the
world’s largest pension plans, sovereign wealth funds, most endowments, some
foundations, and many family offices, Africa’s presence in portfolios is little
more than a footnote. Relatively little time is spent seriously considering
Africa as a capital destination; however, this will change.

OUR INVESTMENT REGIONS



Sango is a pan-African manager, assessing investment opportunities across the
continent, including many companies which have multi-country or pan-African
operations. At any moment in time, the firm focuses on 8-10 countries which have
the right mix of growth and legal/regulatory factors to deliver superior
risk-adjusted returns.





OUR VALUES


AT THE CORE OF HOW WE INVEST ARE THREE PRINCIPLES:

Trusted Relationships, a Growth-Oriented path to delivering Top Quartile
Risk-Adjusted returns, and a commitment to Responsible Investing that is

WHAT WE DO


SANGO PRIVATE EQUITY FUNDS

Read Case Studies

Sango’s core hybrid private equity funds are made up of fund, co-investment and
direct investments. The funds have been constructed using a consistent strategic
framework, which involves the following key elements:


MARKET AND INDUSTRY SELECTION

Investments are sourced in countries and industries/themes with market
conditions expected to generate robust returns and liquidity. While target
countries and industries change over time, investment themes remain centered
around the emerging consumer’s wallet, the food value chain, energy and power
and infrastructure services.


FUND SELECTION

For each fund, Sango sources a set of mid-market funds on a primary and
secondary basis, which together provide complementary and diversifying exposure
to fast-growing businesses that can be acquired at attractive entry prices and
which offer a high return potential. In addition, each fund gains selective
exposure to a handful of tech-enabled growth funds.


CO-INVESTMENT AND DIRECT INVESTMENTS

Each fund makes a number of direct private equity investments, in most cases
alongside trusted private equity investment partners.


PORTFOLIO CONSTRUCTION

A thoughtful and intentional approach to portfolio construction gives each Sango
fund diversified geographic and industry exposures, providing high expected
returns while mitigating left-tail risk (risk of capital loss).


SANGO STRATEGIC EQUITY VEHICLE (SSEV)

Read Case Studies

Sango also manages the SSEV, an evergreen vehicle which invests in larger,
upper-middle-market businesses with substantial growth runways. The SSEV is
designed to hold investments for longer periods of time than would be expected
in the Sango Private Equity Funds, allowing for material compounding of capital
over time. The SSEV’s strategy has the following components:


SOURCING

Investment flow is generated through deep relationships and networks in the
African private equity ecosystem. Pipeline deals are typically generated from
companies which Sango has had a chance to observe or invest in through other
private equity portfolios.


CONSUMER FOCUS

The SSEV is expected to generate competitive returns through a lower cost
structure than traditional private equity as well as by allowing for the
compounding of capital over a longer period of time.


LONG-TERM COMPOUNDING OF CAPITAL

The SSEV focuses on businesses which are expected to benefit from long-term
growth in African consumer spending.
