Description

Aum Thacker is an investment professional at TLG Capital, a London-based private credit investment firm focused on African markets. In this conversation with Chipo Muwowo, he discusses why private credit is transformative for African entrepreneurs, how TLG structures deals to reduce risk in Africa's rapidly evolving private credit landscape, and why a Nollywood deal remains his firm favourite. Aum also shares one thing he’s optimistic about, and one thing he’s cautious of as he looks to the rest of 2025. Enjoy!
