Global Network
One firm, working across borders
From our Nairobi headquarters, established in 1990, Manpep Ventures has grown into a network of seven offices advising clients across five regions.
Where we are
Seven offices across five regions
How the network works
Cross-border mandates, delivered as one firm
One lead partner
Every mandate has a single partner accountable for it, wherever the work is done. You never manage a relay of offices.
The right team, not the nearest
We staff from across the network. An Abuja client raising in London gets our London capital team alongside local advisors.
One standard
The same scoping, quality review and written-reasoning standard applies in every office, set and overseen from headquarters.
Your currency
Engagements are scoped, billed and reported in the currency that suits you — including USD, GBP, EUR, AED, KES, NGN, ZAR and SGD.
Corridors
Where our cross-border work concentrates
Most of our international mandates run along four corridors, each served by offices at both ends.
Africa ⇄ Europe
European lenders, DFIs and investors funding African growth; African businesses raising and listing in London.
Africa ⇄ Gulf
Gulf capital and trade into East and West Africa; African businesses establishing regional bases in the UAE.
Africa ⇄ Asia
Asian manufacturers, investors and traders entering African markets, and the reverse.
Growth markets ⇄ North America
US investors and foundations deploying capital into Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
