Our clear ambition is to be a leading global player in online marketplace portals alongside the likes of Naspers/OLX and Adevinta. As these players reshape their portfolios to focus on larger more developed markets, our focus on emerging markets provides us with a clear pathway to be a global leader.

Consistent with our strategy since IPO, we remain focused on investing in local entrepreneurs, extending our market leadership positions and building transaction-based marketplaces. We are incredibly excited by the significant longterm value creation opportunity of FDV.
