Promoteur – Intermédiaire Financier
KCB BANK KENYA LTDLieu
Description
The facility provides funding to KCB Bank Kenya to support micro and small enterprises impacting positively on gender equality and women's economic empowerment. Micro and small enterprises play a significant role in Kenya's economy, by providing goods, services and creating employment across all economic sectors. However, their growth opportunities are often limited, being often excluded from the traditional banking system, due to perceived higher credit risk and lower appetite by the formal financial institutions.
Objectifs
The aim is to enhance access to finance for the target beneficiaries and contribute to financial inclusion, supporting in particular those micro and small businesses owned or managed by women, in line with the 2X Challenge Criteria. As such, the operation is expected to achieve a high development impact.
