CDI announces Partnership with Africa Merchant Capital Advisory Limited

LONDON - March 22, 2023 - PRLog -- CDI Global is pleased to announce its new partnership with Africa Merchant Capital Advisory Limited.

Africa Merchant Capital Advisory Limited (AMC Advisory), led by Cobus Visagie and Milko Skoro with offices in London and Africa, is an independently owned corporate finance advisory firm with a dedicated focus on the high growth private markets of Sub-Saharan Africa.

The team, CDI Global Africa, draws from multi-disciplinary professional experience including corporate finance, merchant banking, consulting, advisory and personal investing gained from global banks to Private Equity Funds. Their corporate finance team advises on private and public middle market transactions with access to a range of different investor types from private equity funds, endowments and pension funds to family offices and Development Finance Institutions.

Cobus is the Group Chief Executive Officer and co-founded Africa Merchant Capital in 2012. The Africa Merchant Capital Group is a privately owned boutique merchant bank, providing corporate finance advisory, trade finance and asset finance solutions for mid-market businesses active in Sub-Saharan Africa. His professional experience includes corporate finance advisory, merchant banking, business consulting and auditing, as well as personal investing in Africa. Cobus qualified as a Chartered Accountant with PricewaterhouseCoopers in South Africa, spending the last 5 years of his time in the Global Risk Management Services division. Cobus also pursued a successful professional rugby career, representing South Africa and playing professionally in both the Southern and Northern hemisphere.

Milko is the Managing Director of AMC Advisory. Milko is a seasoned investment professional and has held leading roles in various Africa-focused private equity funds, with AUM in excess of USD 4 billion, over the last 20 years. Prior to joining AMC, Milko was the Managing Director for Structuring at Quantum Global, across 7 fund verticals, and prior to that he was a Senior Banker at the Development Bank of Southern Africa and Principal at the National Empowerment Fund of South Africa. Milko has advised private equity companies and corporate clients on both acquisitions and disposals across the Energy, TMT, Logistics, Healthcare and Hospitality sectors. Milko holds an MBA and a MAP from the University of the Witwatersrand.

AMC fills a finance gap in the African private capital markets which is too small and insignificant for global financial institutions and too substantial to be funded by the local finance providers.
