Nigeria’s United Capital Expands Into Francophone West Africa
BloombergSaturday, June 14, 2025 at 9:58:00 AM
Nigerian financial powerhouse United Capital is making moves beyond its borders, setting up shop in Côte d’Ivoire to tap into French-speaking West Africa. This new investment management arm will operate across eight countries, marking a strategic push into a region that’s often overlooked by Anglophone African firms.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another corporate expansion—it’s a sign of Nigeria’s growing influence in regional finance and a bet on Francophone Africa’s untapped potential. For investors, it means more options and competition in a market that’s been dominated by local players. For everyday folks in those eight countries? More financial services could mean better access to wealth-building tools, if United Capital delivers on its promises.
