Back the rails for Nigerian infrastructure capital.
Endeleo is building the platform that lets diaspora and domestic investors fund the roads, grids, and utilities Nigeria needs — under a trustee-custodied, transparent structure. This page is for institutional backers of the platform itself.
Institutional, DFI, family office, or accelerator
You want to back the company — pre-seed equity, DFI catalytic capital, or anchor participation in the pilot raise as an institution.
You want to invest through Endeleo
You're a diaspora or domestic investor looking to subscribe to projects like Lagos Solar directly. The pilot isn't open yet — join the waitlist to be notified first.
Why now
$25B+ diaspora remittance base
Nigerians abroad send home over $20B every year, most into consumption. Endeleo redirects a slice into productive, yield-bearing infrastructure.
Chronic infrastructure gap
Nigeria's infrastructure deficit is estimated in the hundreds of billions of USD. Federal and state balance sheets alone cannot close it — private capital must.
Regulated retail rails maturing
Nigerian securities regulation is opening up to retail-accessible, digitally distributed instruments — the window to build the category leader is now.
What we're building
A two-sided marketplace: a retail investor platform (app.endeleo.online) and a sponsor origination workspace (submit.endeleo.online) — both wrapped in a trustee/escrow structure so investor cash never sits on Endeleo's balance sheet.
Retail & diaspora investors
KYC-verified accounts, fractional subscriptions, wallet, portfolio, and quarterly reporting. Card and crypto rails to serve investors across 40+ countries.
Sponsors & project developers
Federal, state, and corporate sponsors submit projects into a structured origination pipeline: diligence, SPV setup, term-sheet, and offering.
Trustee-custodied cash flows
Investor subscriptions flow into a segregated trustee/escrow account with a licensed Nigerian custodian, not to Endeleo directly.
Compliance-first product
KYC/AML, PEP/sanctions screening, concentration limits, and audit logging built in from day one — not bolted on after launch.
Where we are
Endeleo is pre-launch. Below is a directional snapshot of build progress. We share deeper metrics — pipeline value, MoUs, waitlist growth, unit economics — in the investor room after an intro call.
Endeleo is pre-launch and does not yet hold a securities licence or SEC registration. See our Trust Center and Risk Disclosures.
Team & advisors
Founded by Enitan Adesina. We're actively building the founding team, with priority on a technical co-founder with capital markets background, and assembling an advisory board across infrastructure finance, Nigerian securities law, and platform engineering.
For accelerators, VCs, and DFIs
Endeleo is an infrastructure-fintech play with regulatory, deal origination, and distribution moats. If you back African fintech, embedded capital markets, or diaspora financial rails, we'd like to talk.
- What stage are you?
- Pre-launch. Product is live for demo; capital onboarding blocked on structuring and regulatory milestones.
- What are you raising?
- Pre-seed round to close the structuring milestones, complete the founding team, and run the pilot. Detailed use of funds shared in the 2-pager.
- Use of funds
- Roughly split across (1) regulatory & trustee structuring, (2) founding engineering + origination hires, (3) pilot go-to-market including diaspora activation, and (4) 12 months of runway. Precise split in the 2-pager.
- Business model
- Origination and subscription fees on each project (0.5–1.5%), with optional secondary-market fees at maturity. Fees scale with GMV on the platform — not a per-user SaaS curve.
- Unit economics framing
- LTV is driven by average ticket × subscription frequency × platform take-rate. CAC is dominated by diaspora community activation, which we believe is materially cheaper than paid neobank-style acquisition. Full model in the data room after intro call.
- Moat
- Trustee-custodied structure + sponsor origination pipeline + diaspora distribution — hard for a pure-play fintech or a pure-play sponsor to replicate alone.
- Regulatory posture
- Structuring under Nigerian securities frameworks with licensed trustee/custodian partners. Not yet licensed; no offering will be made outside formal documents. See Trust Center.
- Comparables
- Closest reference points: infrastructure-crowdfunding platforms in emerging markets, retail bond distributors, and diaspora-remittance-adjacent fintechs — but no direct like-for-like at this thesis in Nigeria.
