About FAP
Built by former Big 4 partners, for East African business.
We founded Frontier Advisory Partners to serve a client base the region's advisory market often overlooks.
Overview
Frontier Advisory Partners (FAP) is an independent corporate advisory firm headquartered across Kampala, Nairobi and Dar es Salaam. Our team is drawn from the best of Big 4 Advisory Alumni across East Africa — four Senior Partners, four Associate Partners and seven senior analysts — serving family-owned businesses navigating succession and growth, corporates executing transactions and turnarounds, and government and development institutions delivering public mandates. We combine the technical rigor of international practice with a grounded understanding of how business is actually done in East African markets.

Our Approach
We combine the technical rigor of international practice with a grounded understanding of how business is actually done in East African markets.
Vision & Mission
To be Africa’s premier corporate advisory firm, empowering enterprises to reach their full potential while driving positive societal impact through every transaction.
To deliver cutting-edge corporate advisory solutions that enable clients to maximize value across all their transactions.
Objective & Truthful
We are objective and truthful. Our advice is not clouded by relationships or incentives that would compromise it.
Integrity & Transparency
We treasure relationships grounded in integrity and transparency, with our clients and with each other.
The Power of Teaming
We believe in the power of teaming and strive to leave no one behind — on our engagements and within our own firm.
“Our ambition is to assist our clients in making sense of their dreams, sizing up their plans, and connecting them to the solutions they need.”
How We Work
Every FAP mandate is mapped against the same four-stage lifecycle we use across our four services: Plan, Fund, Optimise, Grow. A client rarely enters at the beginning and exits at the end — a family business might come to us mid-cycle needing to optimise working capital, then return two years later to plan an exit. The lifecycle isn't a sales funnel; it's how we scope a mandate, staff a team, and know when the job is actually finished. Corporate Finance, Performance Improvement, Development Sector and F.A.P Digital each apply the same four stages to a different client context — a corporate raising debt, a parastatal improving its HR function, a donor-funded programme proving impact, or a government digitising a public service.
“We are your dependable partners as you write and realise your growth story, and we are keen to walk with you as you achieve your business dreams, through thick and thin.”
