Foreword

At Risevest, our mission is clear: to connect our users, across Africa and beyond, with the best opportunities for wealth creation. In a time of increasing economic volatility across the continent, securing financial stability has never been more crucial. The unprecedented levels of inflation, economic uncertainty and financial instability we're seeing in different countries from Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Uganda and others are stark reminders of the challenges facing millions of our people today. These realities have made it more important for Africans to identify better opportunities and take control of their financial futures.

This report is a product of our commitment to understanding these challenges and working together with our team and partners to drive their solution. By surveying over 1,600 of our users across key African markets, we have gained invaluable insights into how people are navigating these turbulent times—insights that will help us continue to refine our products and services to meet the needs of our users. The data collected underscores the growing pressure on household finances, the widespread need for financial security, and the crucial role investments play in helping individuals and families build a stable future.

At Risevest, we're not just offering investment opportunities; we're working to create lasting solutions that empower Africans to grow and preserve their wealth in an ever-changing world. This report is part of our ongoing effort to provide actionable insights to guide those seeking to make informed financial decisions. I want to thank everyone who took part in the survey, and I hope this report not only sheds light on the current financial situation but also encourages a broader conversation on how we can work together to create more opportunities for prosperity across Africa.

Sincerely,
Eke Eleanya Urum
CEO, Risevest
