DOB Equity, a family-backed impact investment fund with a focus on East Africa, has announced a significant change in its senior leadership.
After tenures spanning 19 and nine years, respectively, co-CEOs Saskia van der Mast and Hayo Afman will be stepping down from their roles.
The fund will also commence the search for a new CEO to lead its next phase of growth. In the interim, Coen Boevé, CFO of DOB Equity, will assume the role of interim CEO.
During their tenures, Van der Mast and Afman have grown the portfolio from the first investment in 2007 to over 30 companies to date.
