OUR HISTORY

PARTNERING IN THE TRANSFORMATIVE GROWTH OF SOUTH AFRICA

Summit Africa in South Africa was founded in 2016 by two black South-African professionals with significant experience in Investments, Private Equity and Real Estate, who saw a niche in the market to create an Alternative Asset Class Investment Manager which focusses on South Africa, with a unique ownership structure that reflects their African heritage, and a force for sustainable change and growth in the South African economy which ultimately will improve the quality of life of ordinary South Africans.

Majority Black-owned and managed with significant black female ownership, Summit Africa South Africa is a fresh faced representative of the ideals of economic and social reform.

Summit is uniquely positioned in the South African market.

Summit Africa through its subsidiary Summit PE Investment Managers, obtained its license as a registered Financial Services Provider in 2017 and has since celebrated various milestones including active engagement with various stakeholders within the Retirement and Pension Fund industry and the securing of initial investments for the Summit Private Equity Fund and the Summit Social Infrastructure Fund.
