Bamboo

Fintech • Lagos, Nigeria

Bamboo is a Nigerian digital investment company founded in Lagos in 2019 by Richmond Bassey and Yanmo Omorogbe. The company began by giving Nigerian investors digital access to U.S. stocks, addressing the practical barriers that had made participation in international capital markets difficult for individual investors. Its platform has since expanded to include Nigerian stocks, savings products, Treasury Bills and dollar-denominated fixed-income products, while extending its presence beyond Nigeria. Bamboo's development has taken it from a digital platform for accessing U.S. securities into a broader investment business operating across several African markets.
