About Laurus Development Partners

Laurus Development Partners is an Actis joint-venture established to focus on property development in West Africa. This gives us the financial backing to deliver the complex, long-term projects that others struggle to deliver in the challenging West African business environment.

Our world class team creates projects that are relevant; this means that they are aesthetically relevant, socially relevant and functionally relevant. Because of our experience, our expertise, and our tried and tested approach, we are able to manage short and long-term risk and deliver strong returns.  

With headquarters in Accra, Ghana, Laurus Development Partners operates in both the Nigerian and Ghanaian markets.
