A new product called Diaspora Investor Direct Investment (DIDI) has been introduced
by Optiva Capital Partners Limited, the top investment immigration wealth
management business in Nigeria, in keeping with its mission to safeguard, build,
enhance, and optimize wealth for astute investors.
Franklin Nechi, Chairman of Optiva Capital Partners, announced the launch of the unique
product at a dinner last week. He stated that DIDI is “our unique product to attract diaspora
funds and investments into the country” and that it hopes to bring in $5 billion annually.
“We bridge that gap so that Nigerians in the diaspora who wish to send money home for
investment purposes can do so,” Nechi stated.
“The majority of them are afraid of losing their money to dishonest people or agents.”
He claims that Nigeria’s diaspora funds, which are believed to be worth $100 billion annually,
are in the top five globally. To direct 5% of the funds toward profitable ventures in the
nation that would yield a healthy return for the investors and increased foreign exchange
liquidity for the economy, the DIDI would make use of capital structure, infrastructure, and
other wealth management competencies.
Regarding the methods of implementation, Nechi clarified that the company would make use
of its wealth of connections, integrity, and experience to win over Nigerians living abroad
who wish to start enterprises or construct homes at home with the money they earn.
He claimed that since virtual technology is advancing so quickly, setting up platforms for
investors to track their investments would not be difficult.
“We assist the diasporans in setting up a supportive atmosphere so they may monitor the
success of their investments. We will assist investors in managing the risks involved in
bringing money back to the nation for investments, such as real estate development, farms,
and cottage enterprises, through DIDI.”
The investment specialist reaffirmed that the corporation has developed mechanisms to
assist Nigerians living abroad in managing their enterprises from start to finish. According to
him, the organization manages the purchase of land, appropriate title registration, and
establishment of corporate formations for its clients.
He claims that Optiva Capital also provides a chance for financial and investment security,
and as a result, the Diaspora Investor Direct Investment (DIDI) aims to exceed the $5 billion
goal.
Nechi emphasized that the company’s main goal is effective service delivery through its
bespoke end-to-end service delivery by taking ownership of every relationship as it works
hard to provide premium investment immigration and investment services to its clientele in
the delivery of DIDI and its other services and products.
He said that the company was making great efforts to broaden the scope of its offerings
throughout the nation and that it has partnered with Polaris Bank Limited on a national level
to offer investment immigration services to its premium clients, assisting them in diversifying
their holdings across borders.
With plans to establish more branches this year, Optiva has increased its workforce strength
from roughly 15 in 2017 to over 1,000 across 17 branches across the nation thanks to its
tenacity and a clear description of its mission.
