An independent firm, built in Gaborone

Owner-managed since 2017, with no ties to any lender or investor.

Our story

Confianza Capital was set up in 2017 to give businesses in Botswana senior, independent corporate finance advice.

Over the past 9 years we have raised capital and advised on transactions for clients in property, financial services, infrastructure, tourism, healthcare and renewable energy. They range from listed groups and pension funds to family-owned businesses and private investors.

Our job is to match what a business needs with what investors will fund, then do the work to get the deal signed.

How we work

Your objectives first
Every mandate starts with what the business is trying to achieve. The financing follows from that.
Independence
We are not tied to any lender, investor or counterparty, so we can tell you plainly which offer is best.
Measured on closing
A good model means little if the deal doesn't close. We judge our work on capital raised and deals completed.

What we stand for

Integrity
We act fairly and in our clients' best interests, including when that means advising against a deal.
Excellence
Every model, memorandum and negotiation is held to the standard an investment committee expects.
Collaboration
We work as one team with our clients, and we invest in developing our own people.
Innovation
We combine what our team knows to design structures for deals the market hasn't seen before.

Sustainable finance in practice

Much of the work in our region is in renewable energy, agriculture and social infrastructure. These projects need patient capital, and the investors who provide it ask detailed questions about environmental and social impact.

We help sponsors answer them: raising green and blue finance, running ESG and sustainability ratings, and setting up the impact reporting that DFIs and impact funds expect.
