Our Clients
When public infrastructure is implemented and managed by the private sector through long term contracts, PPPs and concessions the outcome improves. With private sector implementation infrastructure construction becomes more innovative and cost efficient to build and operate,/maintain.
We help engineering firms to package projects and source & structure finance for infrastructure. We provide EPCs with finance support from bidding to operations stage across transport & logistics, water, property and energy projects.

We believe that a well-functioning public sector is critical for economic prosperity.
Public entities are the owners of basic service delivery infrastructure across power, water & sanitation, transport and community property. Also, infrastructure is a key lever for economic growth
That is why at Maano Capital we work with municipalities and SOEs to develop funding strategies and investor plans that enable the construction of catalytic infrastructure for improved service delivery, higher living standards and and economic opportunities.
