Amethis is one of our private equity strategies that is particularly close to my heart. It was born more than ten years ago from a shared vision: to contribute in a sustainable way to the economic development of the African continent and to improve the quality of life of its populations.
Since then, we have built around Luc and Laurent a team of 50 professionals, specialists of the continent, women and men of 14 different nationalities. We have channeled more than one billion euros of long-term investments in more than 40 growing companies that directly support more than 40,000 employees. We have also defined an impact and risk management approach based on major environmental and social issues, aligned with several Sustainable Development Goals as defined by the United Nations.
For all these reasons, and ten years after its creation, I am more convinced than ever that Amethis’ investment thesis, which combines the search for impact and financial return, is a perfect illustration of our Group’s strategy: ‘Sustainability in action.’
