Our History

Afrinvest (West Africa) Limited is an investment management holding company active in six principal areas: investment banking, securities trading, asset management, trust services, consultancy, and technology.

The Company was originally founded in 1995 as Securities Transaction and Trust Company -Limited (“SecTrust”) which grew to become a respected research, brokerage and asset management firm. Over the years, SecTrust established a close relationship with London-based Afrinvest (UK) Limited, an investment banking firm regulated by the UK Financial Services Authority and following a business restructuring in 2005, SecTrust combined with the Nigerian based corporate finance business of Afrinvest (UK) Limited (Afrinvest Nigeria Limited) to create a stronger business entity with a more internationally recognized corporate identity, renamed as Afrinvest (West Africa) Limited

Afrinvest has built a track record in executing transactions within its principal areas of business and prides itself in:

  1. Thorough knowledge of the Nigerian market, business communities and the regulatory environment;
  2. Careful, fact-based analysis and recommendations;
  3. Complete corporate independence and discretion; and
  4. The delivery of innovative solutions tailored to the specific needs of our clients.
