About

Thank you for stopping by 🙂 I am Hatem Mahbouli.

I leverage the substantial experience and network acquired in the impact investing space to the benefit of early-stage companies and financial intermediaries in Africa and Asia, focusing on agriculture, financial inclusion and access to energy. Services and support include: assistance with fundraising and investors’ relation, due diligence services, board membership, fund structuring, training, preparation of investment and credit policies. I focus on fintechs and blockchain-related initiatives.

For the past ten years, I have had the amazing opportunity to lead complex investments with high development impact. I used to be a Senior Investment Officer at ElectriFI, a EU sponsored investment initiative to alleviate energy poverty, managed by EDFI. Before that, I was an Investment Officer at FMO, the Dutch development bank, in the Hague. Before joining FMO, I was involved in various efforts to develop social business and impact investing with leading organizations such as Ashoka and Village Capital.  I also contributed to strategy consulting and business modelling  projects for  Shea Yeleen International, HelloWallet, Gnewt Cargo, and IBM Brazil. Previously, I held a consulting position in Industrial and Organisational Systems Integration at the Paris office of Accenture.

I co- founded the Tunisian Center for Social Entrepreneurship in 2011,   FuckUp Nights the Hague  in 2014,  Wodhoo7  in 2018, and Hura Capital in 2019

I graduated from Georgetown University Mc Donough Business School (MBA – Washington DC) and Telecom SudParis (Master of Engineering- Paris, France). During my studies, I also attended the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, the Georgetown Public Policy Center, London Business School, the Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology and Sainte Genevieve School of Versailles.  I am also a CFA charter-holder.

I had the privilege to  live and/or work in various countries such as the Netherlands, France, USA, UK, Rwanda, South Korea, Lebanon, Georgia etc.

This blog is to share some ideas, projects and passions. I hope it can help in some way, and please feel free to leave comments or to contact me. Thanks again.
