The most common headquarters are Johannesburg (13), Nairobi (13) and Lagos (10). This selection of large financial services companies in Africa includes established groups like Standard Bank Group, which focuses on inclusive economic development, and Absa Group, an African financial services company with a presence in multiple countries.

The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking.
