Capital Markets - , New York, United States
Nyansapo Impact Capital is an investment advisor for SMEs in sub-Saharan Africa creating impact through business growth and job creation.Nyansapo was founded to address the lack of private capital for African SMEs. This lack of private money is often referred to as "the missing middle." Nyansapo's mission is to grow the vast number of innovative businesses on the continent. Nyansapo's economic collaboration among African entrepreneurs and the global African diaspora will close this gap and become a wealth generator for investors and entrepreneurs.Nyansapo, meaning "wisdom knot," is a revered symbol of the Akan [a meta-ethnicity living in the southern regions of present-day Ghana, formerly known as the Gold Coast] culture and conveys the idea that "a wise person can choose the best means to attain a goal." Being wise implies broad knowledge, learning and experience, and the ability to apply such faculties to practical ends. The NIC team refers to these words with every investment approach and every client we advise in Africa. We approach our transactions in Africa with an enduring passion for working with our friends and partners on the ground to create a positive impact in Africa while generating investment returns - as NIC invests, Africa profits.
