LIBREVILLE, 4 April 2026 (AGP) – Okoumé Capital, a 100% Gabonese-owned investment firm, has received official approval from the Central African Financial Market Supervisory Commission (Cosumaf) to operate as a capital investment management company. The approval, granted following a session in Libreville on 10 March, allows Okoumé Capital to engage in private equity management activities within the Central African financial market regulatory framework.
The move comes as Okoumé Capital seeks to mobilize resources for businesses and contribute to the structuring of private equity in Central Africa. The firm, established in 2018 with a capital of 20 billion CFA francs (approximately 35.1 million dollars), is aligned with Gabon’s national economic policy orientations, focusing on financing local businesses.
Fabrice Ulric Assoumou Essono and Nadia Prisca Ngoyo Moussavou have been appointed as directors of the management company, formalizing its governance and guiding its regional market interventions. Additionally, Okoumé Capital’s subsidiary, the Gabonese Guarantee Company (SGG), aids in expanding financing instruments for the economy.
Gabon’s private equity sector is regulated under the decree of 1 August 2011, which provides a structured framework for investment activities.
