Our Firm

Institutional rigour. Accessible expertise.

A financial advisory firm dedicated to helping businesses grow, raise capital, and maximise their financial value.

Who We Are

Closing the expertise gap

Leonine Investment Services is a financial advisory firm dedicated to helping businesses grow, raise capital, and maximise their financial value.

We were founded on a simple but important observation: that growth-stage businesses - regardless of where they operate - consistently lack access to the calibre of financial expertise that transforms good companies into fundable, scalable, high-value enterprises. Leonine was built to close that gap.

Led by Haneef Abbas, whose career spans over 15 years in investment banking and corporate finance, we bring institutional-grade thinking to every mandate we take on. Our work spans capital raising, financial modelling, business planning, financial due diligence, and business valuation - covering every financial dimension that determines how a business grows and what it's ultimately worth.

We work with businesses across Africa and global markets - from early-stage companies preparing for their first raise to established businesses navigating complex transactions. Whatever the mandate, we go in deep, stay until the work is done, and hold ourselves to the standard that serious investors and discerning clients expect.
