On Tuesday, 22nd of August 2017, a leading African focused investment firm, Quantum Global Group announced that it has been awarded “Fastest Growing Investment Company in sub-Saharan Africa 2017” by International Finance Magazine. This award comes after major successes in its global development and portfolio growth plans.

“We are thrilled to have been awarded Fastest Growing Investment Company 2017 by International Finance Magazine.
