Silk Invest

Silk Invest was founded in 2008 as an innovative investment boutique with the main objective of opening new routes for investors. At that time, emerging and frontier markets were the most attractive investment opportunities. While those markets remain central to the firm’s offering, but over the years Silk Invest has also developed new strategies and partnerships, which will be central to our future growth. Silk Invest has since 2008 established itself as a leading frontier and emerging markets specialist with deep insights across major asset classes in our regions. From hubs in London and Casablanca, with additional staff in select markets, Silk Invest leverages deep local insights and networks to source and execute the best opportunities for our strategies. Silk Invest manages equity, fixed income, and private equity mandates in Frontier and Emerging Markets in addition to a real estate platform in Africa. Moving into the future, Silk Invest wants to deepen its proposition and bring together new investment talents across major, emerging themes. Silk Invest is regulated by the UK FCA and registered with the US SEC. The firm has been a signatory to the United Nations Principles of Responsible Investing since 2009 and integrates responsibility principles in all our investments.
