About usMOBILIST has supported the successful listing of Kenyan retailer Quickmart on the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE), using a cornerstone commitment to help build confidence in the offer before reducing its allocation as investor demand strengthened. MOBILIST initially committed up to US$15 million (approximately KES 1.94 billion) to the offer, providing cornerstone demand alongside the International Finance Corporation and other investors. As demand strengthened, MOBILIST reduced its final allocation by approximately US$5 million, creating more space for Kenyan institutional and retail investors.

MOBILIST has supported the launch of a new Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) designed to broaden institutional investment in African sovereign debt markets. Developed with Legal & General Asset Management (L&G), the fund is the latest step in MOBILIST's effort to build the market infrastructure needed to attract larger pools of private capital into African economies. This is the first time a UK government programme has seeded an ETF. By helping the fund launch at a credible initial size, MOBILIST is demonstrating how development finance can work with major asset managers and public markets to create investable products capable of mobilising capital at scale.
