Established in 1948, CDC Group focuses on investing in emerging markets in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, specifically for the private sector. Owned by the UK government (though the government is not involved with the firm's operations), CDC does not make the investments themselves; instead, the firm leverages the use of a third party fund manager. It zeroes in on poorer countries with a specific focus on the sub-Saharan Africa, South America, and South, Southeast and Central Asia regions. CDC has net assets of more than $4 billion. To read the full description, subscribe now.
