‘Sub Saharan Africa’ and more so ‘The Lake Victoria Basin’ in East Africa is considered by many as being an area where major economic growth will take place during the course of the coming decades. Countries such as; Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi have all made the transition to democracy, creating the right platform for future growth. Kenya and Uganda in particular are highly investor friendly with no restrictions on either inward or outward capital flow. The forthcoming East African Community will enhance and facilitate cross-border investment opportunities.

Uganda is known as the country with one of the highest percentages of entrepreneurs on the continent and puts a lot of emphasis on the education and training of its people from Primary up to and beyond University level.

It is against this background that ‘The Lake Victoria and Equatorial Africa Company Limited’ ('LVEAC') has been founded, aiming at the generation of substantial returns on capital for its investor base. ‘LVEAC’ will primarily raise its equity from non-African investors wanting to diversify and complement their existing portfolio with investments in the region.
