Strategic Advisory

Land & Infrastructure Acquisition

We facilitate the acquisition of high-value land and infrastructure assets on behalf of institutional and private investors. Mandates are handled exclusively, and property owners maintain full privacy throughout.

02
Regulatory

Licensing & Regulatory Facilitation

Foreign investors entering Uganda require guidance through investment registration, UIA licensing, land title transfer, and sector-specific permits. We manage this process end-to-end, drawing on established relationships with the relevant government authorities.

03
Structuring

Investment Vehicle Structuring

We advise on and facilitate the structuring of appropriate investment vehicles, including SPVs, joint ventures, and consortium arrangements, to optimise tax position, ownership structure, and repatriation of returns under Uganda's Investment Code Act 2019.

04
Government Relations

Ministerial Access & Government Engagement

In East Africa, relationships determine outcomes. We provide direct introductions and facilitated engagement with decision-makers across Uganda's investment, lands, energy, and infrastructure ministries.

05
Development

Post-Acquisition Development Advisory

For investors who wish to develop acquired assets, we provide access to an established Design-and-Build contractor with a mobilised Uganda presence, capable of delivering industrial, commercial, and accommodation facilities on competitive terms.

06
Due Diligence

Legal Due Diligence & Title Verification

We introduce investors to recommended Ugandan legal counsel for independent title verification, encumbrance checks, and chain-of-ownership confirmation, so that every acquisition is legally sound before capital is committed.

Uganda's Moment
Is Now

East Africa is undergoing a structural transformation. Uganda sits at the centre of a convergence of energy, infrastructure, and economic growth that is drawing institutional capital from across the globe.

Oil Economy Coming Online

Uganda's Albertine Graben holds an estimated 6.65 billion barrels of petroleum resources, with major operators already deploying billions in capital across the region.

Infrastructure Already Committed

A new international airport, a USD 5 billion export pipeline, upgraded arterial roads, and a Standard Gauge Railway to the Port of Mombasa are all in active delivery.

Investor-Friendly Legal Framework

Uganda's Investment Code Act 2019 provides 10-year tax holidays for qualifying investments, full profit repatriation rights, and ICSID arbitration access for international investors.

Macro Stability

GDP growth approaching 6.5 to 7%, headline inflation below 4%, and USD-denominated land transactions with unrestricted repatriation provide a sound foundation for long-term capital deployment.
