Shepherds Tree, an investment advisory firm, plans to channel capital into Namibia’s high-growth sectors, with a focus on oil and gas, marine, mining, and hospitality.

Founder Ekkehard Friedrich said the company is working with several major organisations in these industries to drive investment into the country.

“We have partnered with several leading organisations in the oil & gas, marine and mining sectors and a couple of financial institutions whom we work with closely. Some exciting things are planned still,” Friedrich said.

He confirmed that the company recently travelled to Europe to establish an “investment bridge” for high-net-worth investors and family offices from Germany, Liechtenstein, and Switzerland looking to invest in Namibia.

Shepherds Tree has also appointed Norbert Wurm as a partner to lead its tourism, hotel, and hospitality division.

“The appointment of Mr Wurm is aimed at doubling down on focus to optimally support the local hotel, hospitality and tourism opportunities which we believe are set to take off,” Friedrich said.

He added that the company has formed a strategic partnership with an international hospitality firm to strengthen its presence in the sector.

Wurm will also join Shepherds Tree’s mergers and acquisitions team and oversee the firm’s “Family Office” division, which focuses on investment opportunities for ultra-high-net-worth individuals entering the Namibian market.

Although Shepherds Tree does not currently manage its own investment fund, Friedrich said the company has advised on transactions worth close to N$1 billion.

“Being focused primarily on transaction advisory services, Shepherds Tree does not manage an investment fund at present but has advised on cumulative transactions close to N$1 billion. We pride ourselves on finding the right projects for our investors and optimally supporting them through the transaction lifecycle,” he said.
