Established in 2012, the Gabonese Fund for Strategic Investments (FGIS), is the exclusive manager of the Sovereign Wealth Fund of the Gabonese Republic (FSRG) and is dedicated to investing in the realization of intergenerational shared prosperity in Gabon.
Today, we act as a development fund dedicated to financing the implementation of government priorities for the benefit of the population and future generations. Our action is aligned with the country’s strategic orientations defined in the Plan d’Accélération de la Transformation (PAT), presented in 2021 in a logic of structural transformation of the economy.
Message from the Chief Executive Officer
Created to grow national savings and actively contribute to the diversification of the Gabonese economy, the Gabonese Sovereign Wealth Fund inherited state holdings in a dozen key sectors in Gabon and has a total of 83 companies in its portfolio.
The FGIS is regulated according to an extremely strict protocol in terms of governance, social and environmental responsibility in order to carry out its missions in accordance with the needs, not only of the Gabonese people, but also of leading international institutions and companies.
The strategic review of our operations in the context of a global pandemic gave us the opportunity to carry out an in-depth reflection on transformation. This is now beginning to bear fruit, as evidenced by the development and the start of the implementation of 2020-2025 strategic plan, fully supported by a mobilized and committed team.
Our investment strategy aims to achieve a dual objective of financial performance of the portfolio to promote social impact. We intend to achieve this performance through optimized management of our assets and mobilization of our resources, at the service of Gabonese, for today and tomorrow.
