• SPE Capital is considering growth equity and secondaries as new investment strategies as it approaches its 10th anniversary in 2026. The firm aims to identify asset classes suitable for Africa and the Middle East where it can be a relevant investor.
• The firm's CEO, Nabil Triki, sees growth equity as promising due to the tech boom and AI's growing influence in Africa and the Middle East. He also believes secondaries offer opportunities due to the challenges of exiting investments in emerging markets.
• SPE Capital is currently raising its third fund, SPE PEF III, targeting $350 million for investments in North Africa. The fund will focus on control-oriented, growth-stage equity and equity-related deals in mid-sized companies.
• Founded in 2016, SPE Capital has deployed over $500 million and shifted its focus to control-focused investments in light industrials, business services, healthcare, and education. Its latest fund has already invested in Tamweely Microfinance and OMOA Group.
