Delivering the Diaspora promise
The diaspora market is unique in the sense that it straddles at least two countries, meaning two distinct markets: the residency market and the country of origin market. Diasporans often have a strong affinity for both, one being their present home and the other their formative home where they ultimately hope to one day return.
In the current scenario where Africa has very attractive opportunities in investments, the typical African diasporan is very keen to participate and reap the rewards of this frontier market. However, they also want assurance that their investments will be worthwhile. Any African businesses that want to acquire diaspora investments need to be able to execute well the solutions that clients need and want.

For Cytonn Diaspora, execution begins with a worthwhile strategy that ensures the office and Team has or can get what is required to execute the strategy.
For this to happen, there is a need to create for Cytonn an execution culture that designs strategies that are road maps rather than rigid plans so as to respond quicly when the unexpected happens. Execution sets the pace for everything, changing faster than others because we are closer to the situation. Execution does not just happen. It involves a set of priorities, an execution culture and a people process to undertake specific action to deliver the results. It is the critical link to test the matching of organizational capability and what is required to execute the operational plan to deliver the results to the diaspora.
