Francophone Africa
Oil & gas: family office and prestige real estate.
Between Equatorial Guinea and the Emirates, the opportunities already exist; what is missing is the right door in. Ours is clear: oil & gas: family office and prestige real estate. That is the starting point of every mission we run for leaders from your market.
We work in French, with deep knowledge of Francophone Africa's business environments and of what Emirati institutions expect. For decision-makers from Equatorial Guinea, an Africa advisor based in Dubai changes everything: direct access, a vetted network, on-the-ground coordination.
Opportunities in detail
For wealth built in Equatorial Guinea, Dubai offers what is often missing elsewhere: monetary stability, robust holding structures and international managers. We frame the thinking — objectives, horizon, family governance — then arrange introductions to family offices and regulated advisers.
Dubai's property market is fully open to buyers from Equatorial Guinea: residential, commercial and off-plan, in a dollar-pegged currency. Depending on your objective — rental yield, a family residence, value protection — we shortlist districts and developers, verify every file and coordinate visits, negotiation and signature.
UAE residency — notably the 10-year Golden Visa linked to investment — gives families and executives from Equatorial Guinea a stable base: international schooling, banking, mobility. We point you to the route that fits your case and coordinate the file with licensed providers, never promising an approval that belongs to the authorities alone.
Your roadmap
By video call from Malabo or at our Dubai office: your situation, your objective, your timeline. No commitment at this stage.
A written action plan specific to your market: recommended structure, realistic budget, milestones, and the list of counterparties we propose to approach.
We arrange your meetings in Dubai: partners, property or facility visits, banks, institutions. You leave with working relationships, not business cards.
Signature, incorporation, first shipment or acquisition: we coordinate, then remain your permanent relay in the Emirates.
How we work with you
Frequently asked questions
Dubai's market is open to international buyers: residential, commercial and off-plan. We help you define an objective (rental yield, residence, capital growth), shortlist properties and coordinate visits, checks and procedures through to signature.
Two main routes: Mainland (UAE local market) or a free zone (100% foreign ownership). We compare jurisdictions for your activity, coordinate the file, bank-account opening and, if needed, residency.
Yes, several routes exist depending on your profile: residency linked to a property investment, the 10-year Golden Visa, or an entrepreneur residency attached to your company. We identify the right route and coordinate the file with licensed providers — the final decision always rests with the UAE authorities.
Counterparty risk is trading's number-one risk. We never hand over a mere contact list: we pre-qualify buyers (legal existence, track record, capacity), arrange the meetings and stay involved in negotiating terms — Incoterms, inspection, payment security.
