Strategic Ownership. Lasting Value.

MIG funds and invests in developments led by private entities, government, public-private partnerships and non-profit organisations. Across six investment products, we bring capital, structuring expertise and hands-on involvement to projects that deliver financial returns and lasting social and economic impact.

Makazi Investment Group (MIG) is a 100% black-owned investment holding company that builds and grows businesses through active, long-term partnership. We combine patient capital with hands-on strategic and operational involvement, so that the enterprises we back become resilient, sustainable and able to deliver lasting returns for investors, partners and the communities they serve.

We support Climate Change, Health and Poverty Initiatives

These initiatives contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals on no poverty, zero hunger, good health and wellbeing, clean water and sanitation, affordable and clean energy, reduced inequalities and climate action.

A better quality of life depends on a healthy environment, healthy people and a fair chance to earn a living. MIG supports programmes and invests in non-profit organisations across South Africa that tackle three of the country's most pressing challenges: climate change, health and poverty. We see these as connected. Communities that are food-secure, healthy and climate-resilient are better able to learn, work, start businesses and build wealth.

BBBEE-Corporate Governance Investment Visibility

This programme is MIG's platform for making B-BBEE, ESG, CSR and corporate governance investment opportunities visible to the investors and institutions looking for them. MIG works with global ESG and corporate governance organisations to invite established macro B-BBEE organisations into a transformation programme that grows the Black economic investment footprint across the Southern Hemisphere.

Investing in Youth Ideas, Voices and Employment

South Africa's young people hold the ideas, energy and talent that will shape the next generation of business and society, yet too many face unemployment, limited access to quality education and few platforms to be heard. MIG invests in young people as partners and decision-makers: we back their ideas, fund their learning and skills, support their voices and open doors to work.

BBBEE CSR / ESG / Corporate Governance Investment Visibility Programme

Makazi Investment Group (MIG), in partnership with global ESG and Corporate Governance organisations, invites established macro B-BBEE organisations to take part in the BBBEE CSR / ESG / Corporate Governance Investment Visibility Programme. This B-BBEE transformation programme is designed to empower the black economic investment footprint across the Southern Hemisphere.
