Prosus

Prosus N.V. is a Netherlands-based global consumer internet group. It originated in 2019 when Naspers spun off its international internet assets to form a standalone company. Prosus is listed on Euronext Amsterdam and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Naspers remains the largest shareholder, and Prosus operates as a separate entity with its own board and management while maintaining strategic ties to its parent.

The company invests in online platforms and internet services across emerging and developing markets. Its portfolio includes PayU, a payments business active in many countries; OLX Group, a global online classifieds platform with operations in numerous regions; iFood, a leading food-delivery platform in Latin America; and a range of other consumer internet assets. A substantial portion of its value is derived from a large stake in Tencent, the Chinese technology conglomerate, which continues to be a primary driver of Prosus’s overall performance.

Prosus emphasizes a long-term, value-oriented investment approach, often holding minority stakes in growth companies and using cash generated from Tencent to fund new acquisitions and expansions. The group operates through a diversified set of internet platforms and services designed to capture growth in consumer internet usage and digital payments in emerging markets.

Headquartered in Amsterdam, Prosus operates globally with a governance structure aligned to Dutch corporate standards, reporting to shareholders through its periodic financial disclosures. The company positions itself as an engine for expanding international internet services, while benefiting from the scale and diversification of its Tencent asset.
