How Pius Muchiri Built an Investment leader- Nabo Capital

Description

There is a perception amongst many that financial freedom is about earning more money. Pius Muchiri believes it's about reaching a point where your investments can sustain your lifestyle even if your salary stops tomorrow. In this episode of Financially Incorrect Business Edition, Barrack sits down with Pius Muchiri, CFA and Managing Director of Nabo Capital, to unpack a career spanning accounting, investment management, private equity, public markets, and the building of one of Kenya's leading fund management firms. He reflects on the childhood experience that shaped his relationship with money after witnessing financial uncertainty at a young age. That experience would go on to influence his approach to investing, risk management, and his belief that financial independence should be the ultimate goal for every investor. The conversation traces his journey from accounting to investment management, his years at Centum Investments, where he helped execute some of East Africa's most notable investment transactions, and the lessons learned from building Nabo Capital from the ground up. We also explore the future of investing in Africa, why diversification beyond your home market matters, the role of money market funds in wealth preservation, and how technology is helping democratize access to investment opportunities. A major highlight of the conversation is the discussion around TRIFIC REIT, a real estate investment trust designed to give investors access to institutional-grade real estate through a more accessible structure. Pius breaks down how the vehicle works, the thinking behind creating it, the role of liquidity in real estate investing, and why dollar-denominated income opportunities are attracting growing interest from investors seeking diversification and long-term wealth creation. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Access all our links in one place: ⁠https://lnk.bio/Financially_Inc 💹 Ready to start tr
