- Our journey began with the aggregation of the legacy subsidiary firms of Spring Bank to establish Spring Capital.
- As a wholly owned subsidiary of Spring Bank, Spring Capital laid the foundation for what would evolve into the diversified pan-African investment group known today as PAC Holdings.
A Vision Born to Serve the African Investor
Founded in 2006, PanAfrican Capital Holdings Limited is a proprietary investment group headquartered in Lagos, Nigeria with presence in Accra, Nairobi and Mauritius. Over two decades, PAC Holdings has grown from a focused financial services company into a diversified, multi-sectoral conglomerate spanning seven industries across the continent.
As a Proprietary Investment Company, our specialist subsidiary companies across our chosen sectors are geared towards offering strategic investment solutions and unlocking value across emerging and frontier markets.
