Advisers Who Understand What Permanence Requires

Sparkborbit's team combines legal, actuarial, and financial planning expertise — and measures success in decades, not quarters.

Meet the Team

Small professional advisory team in a light-filled Kenyan office

A Small Team With a Narrow, Deep Focus

We have deliberately remained a small advisory practice. Sparkborbit was founded in Garissa in 2014 with a precise mandate: capital protection for families and individuals who have accumulated significant assets and need disciplined, long-horizon counsel. Over the past decade we have completed over 180 structured protection reviews, established more than 40 formal holding arrangements, and guided seven family enterprises through generational succession. We do not measure our impact in assets under management, because we do not manage assets. We measure it in the number of structures that have operated without structural failure — and in the clients who return each year for their annual review, year after year. Our advisers hold qualifications in financial planning and risk management, and we maintain continuing professional development commitments to remain current with Kenyan regulatory developments.

How Each Member of the Team Contributes

Structured expertise rather than generalist coverage — each adviser owns a specific domain.

Lead Advisory

The lead adviser oversees every client engagement from initial assessment through annual review, providing continuity of context that is rarely achievable in larger institutions. Clients never present their situation to a new face.

Legal Structuring

A specialist in Kenyan trust law and succession legislation reviews each structure for legal soundness and co-ordinates with external counsel where cross-border considerations arise.

Actuarial Analysis

Insurance wrapper selection and stress-testing of long-horizon scenarios are supported by actuarial analysis, ensuring that protection assumptions are grounded in documented probability ranges, not optimistic projections.

“I have worked with four advisory firms over twenty years. Sparkborbit is the first where I speak to the same person every time — someone who actually remembers the details of our structure from the previous year without me repeating myself. That continuity is genuinely rare.”

Speak Directly with an Adviser

Initial consultations are conducted by the lead adviser personally, not a junior intake coordinator.
