Arab Financial Consultants (AFC), a brokerage intermediary, has announced its entry into the capital of the asset management company Alternative Capital Partners (ACP) with a stake of 39.2%. This strategic investment is a key step in AFC’s development strategy and demonstrates its commitment to strengthening its positioning in high value-added financial activities.
Through this operation, AFC intends to diversify and consolidate its range of services for companies and institutional investors, particularly in the areas of private equity, fund structuring and management, as well as strategic support for growing companies. AFC’s investment in ACP marks a natural evolution of its model, expanding its scope beyond its historical core business of stock brokerage.
Founded in 1985 at the initiative of Arab Tunisian Bank (ATB), a subsidiary of the international financial group Arab Bank Plc, Arab Financial Consultants has established itself over the decades as one of the leading players in the Tunisian financial market. The institution is among the leaders in brokerage intermediation and also operates across the entire financial engineering and structuring chain: structuring and launching bond issues, preparing prospectuses, supporting companies applying for listing on the stock exchange, capital increase operations, as well as managing UCITS and portfolios for both institutional and private clients.
