What we do, and how
Every engagement is scoped around your question and covered by a mutual NDA. Below, the two areas where we work.
Understanding risk before you commit
When you are about to invest, sign with a local partner or bid for a contract, the decisive information is rarely in the public record. It is in how things are actually decided, and by whom.
Reading the position of the authorities
Where the State actually stands on a project, a sector or a transaction — and how that position is likely to shift over your decision horizon.
On-the-ground due diligence
Verification of partners, counterparties, ownership and track records, through fieldwork conducted directly in Senegal and West Africa — not a database pull.
Political & regulatory risk
A structured reading of the dynamics at play, scenario-based analysis, and your project's specific exposure.
Stakeholder mapping
Who really decides, who can block, and how the lines of influence run.
Entering African markets, knowing the rules
The African Continental Free Trade Area reshaped the rules of African trade. Using it well means knowing how those rules apply in practice — country by country, sector by sector.
Market-entry strategy
Entry routes, applicable regimes and points of friction, for a plan to establish or export across West Africa.
AfCFTA advisory
Rules of origin, tariff regimes, opportunities and obligations — read through the lens of someone who negotiated them.
Regional integration & foreign trade
Insight into how continental trade actually works, drawn from seventeen years spent building and negotiating it.
Executive mission support
From C-suite briefings to the full management of an investor visit to Dakar.
