Firmwide initiatives – our analyst program

In 2024 we continued with our second analyst training
program, hiring two Kigali based analysts to the investment
team.

In 2024, we re-launched our analyst training program,
designed to provide hands-on experience in investment
analysis, structured training and practical deal exposure. Over
the course of a year, analysts go through different skill
development phases to prepare them for a career in Private
Equity.
Delivered in a hybrid format—with both in-person sessions and
virtual training modules—the program is structured to ensure
progressive skills development and real-world application.

The program focuses on four key components:

Analyst Training Sessions: Weekly training sessions—held in-person, remotely, or online—covering areas such as financial
analysis, valuation techniques, and modeling. Analysts also take part in FMVA certification and Damodaran valuation classes,
further strengthening their analytical capabilities.

ESGI Training: This year’s program covered a dedicated ESG and impact component, aimed at helping analysts understand ESG
integration within African Private Equity. Exploring ESG due diligence (ESG DD) methodologies and different approaches to
assessing sustainability risks and opportunities.
Hands-on Experience: To reinforce learning, analysts are staffed on live deals, actively contributing to investment analysis and
deal execution.
Mentorship Program: Each analyst is paired with a mentor, who provides ongoing career guidance, feedback, and professional
development support and ensuring analysts are progressing effectively and adapting well to the demands of the role.
