KIGALI (Capital Markets in Africa) – Kibo Capital Partners, a manager of regional private equity funds, today announced an investment by Kibo II in I&M Bank Rwanda, the oldest and one of the most profitable banks in Rwanda.
“Our investment in I&M Rwanda (IMR) builds on a long relationship between Kibo and with I&M Bank. Investing in IMR allows Kibo to support a market leading bank to expand further in one of the Sub-Saharan Africa’s dynamic economies. As the first Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) transaction in our current fund, Kibo played a cornerstone role as the main international institutional investor in IMR’s successful Initial Public Offering on the Rwanda Stock Exchange,” Kevin Rodrigues, Principal of Kibo, said.
