Overview
What is
Private Equity?
Private Equity is the discipline of investing capital directly into companies or assets outside the public markets — acquiring, building, and transforming businesses to generate superior, risk-adjusted returns over time.
The streams of private equity are diverse. From Leveraged Buyouts — acquiring mature businesses with borrowed capital — to Build, Operate and Transfer (BOT) models that develop critical infrastructure from the ground up, the asset class spans the full breadth of the global economy.
What unites every strategy is a simple conviction: that active ownership, operational expertise, and patient capital can unlock value that public markets cannot see — and cannot reach.
Our Strategies
The EQFI PE
investment universe
Leveraged Buyouts
Acquiring established businesses with strong fundamentals, unlocking hidden value through operational improvement and strategic repositioning.
Build, Operate & Transfer
Developing critical infrastructure from the ground up—power stations, utilities, and country-critical assets—then transferring to sovereign and institutional partners.
Growth Capital
Deploying expansion capital into high-potential businesses across emerging and developed markets, with a focus on long-term compounding.
Infrastructure PE
Owning and operating essential physical assets—gas-fired thermal power stations, grid infrastructure, and energy transition facilities.
Flagship Development

This is not merely a financial investment. It is a bet on Nigeria's energy future — and on the hundreds of thousands of homes, businesses, and institutions that will benefit from a more reliable national grid.
Our Approach
The age-long
route to market
At EQFI PE, we follow the age-long route-to-market — meaning we provide exits to our early investors and backers easily, and liquify to the businesses and partners associated with us.
We are a pure-play investment manager with earnings derived from stable, predictable fee-related revenue. Our scale and access to long-duration capital allow us to pursue opportunities across sectors, geographies, and market cycles — often where and when others cannot.
The reward to us and our clients has been worth the while.
