About Victoria
Victoria Kawonga is a finance professional with over four years of experience across capital markets and banking in Zambia.
Before joining Growth Investment Partners Zambia, Victoria spent over three years as an Analyst at one of the country’s established stockbroking and investment banking firms, a member of the Lusaka Securities Exchange. There she valued companies across sectors ranging from mining and energy to manufacturing and hospitality, assessed the holdings of some of the country’s largest institutional investors, and advised both public and private clients on corporate actions. She also carried regulatory responsibility for a substantial share of the companies listed on the exchange, steering them through their reporting obligations and corporate transactions under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Lusaka Securities Exchange. Earlier in her career, she held roles at a pan-African commercial bank and at a regional telecommunications and technology company.
At Growth Investment Partners Zambia, Victoria serves as an Investment Associate, supporting the firm’s investment activity across the cycle — from originating and assessing new opportunities through structuring and disbursement to the ongoing monitoring of portfolio companies — and contributing the research and reporting that inform investment decisions and track performance.
She holds a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics of Finance from the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg.”
