Supporting clients across Africa and other Emerging Markets

Trusted Partners supports clients across a broad range of sectors, including renewable energy, infrastructure, agriculture and agribusiness, FMCG, forestry, telecoms and digital infrastructure, manufacturing and industrial operations, oil and gas, healthcare, and diversified real assets. 

Our cross-sector experience allows us to identify recurring patterns of ESG and E&S risk while remaining sensitive to the specific technical, regulatory, and stakeholder issues that arise in different sectors and jurisdictions. 

Our advisory work is informed by internationally recognised ESG and Environmental & Social Risk Management standards and guidance, including: IFC Performance Standards; Equator Principles; World Bank Group and IFC EHS Guidelines; EBRD and other development finance requirements; and Responsible investment and sustainability-related frameworks.

 

We help clients navigate the interface between international finance expectations, regulatory obligations, and operational realities on the ground.
