Cytonn Investments is an alternative investment manager, with real estate development capability, and a primary focus on private equity and real estate investments in the high growth Kenyan Region.
Cytonn has a unique strategy of coupling two compelling demand areas – the lack of high yielding investment products due to the large banking spread, and the lack of institutional grade real estate; by providing high yielding instruments to attract funding from investors, and we deploy that funding to investment grade, well planned and comprehensive real estate developments that are largely pre-sold. With offices in Nairobi, Nakuru, Nyeri and Kisumu – Kenya and Washington, DC – USA, we are primarily focused on offering alternative investment solutions to global and local institutional investors, individual high net-worth investors, and diaspora investors interested in the East-African region.Real estate investments are made through our
development affiliate, Cytonn Real Estate, where we currently have over Kshs.
82 billion (USD 820 mn) of projects under mandate across ten projects. In
private equity, we invest in banking, education, and hospitality. Our financial
services investments in Sub Saharan Africa are made through our Cytonn Africa
Financial Fund (CAFF). Investments in education and hospitality are made
through Cytonn Education Services and Cytonn Hospitality, respectively.
