REGIONAL MSME INVESTMENT FUND FOR SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA SA SICAV-SIFOrt
Beschreibung
REGMIFA S.A - Regional MSME Investment Fund for Sub-Saharan Africa is a regional fund investing primarily in microfinance institutions based in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Ziele
The fund targets regulated and non-regulated microfinance institutions (MFIs), local banks and other financial institutions providing funding to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) (collectively referred to as "partner lending institutions" or "PLIs") in Sub-Saharan Africa. The fund aims to increase over time the percentage of investments in smaller and less-developed PLIs, which are commonly not served by existing microfinance funders. According to the Microrate or Consultative Group to Assist the Poor (CGAP) definition of the respective tiers, for Q3/2015 the REGMIFA Tier composition by number of PLIs is respectively 43% for Tier I MFIs and 57% for Tier II MFIs. In June 2015, REGMIFA reached more than 200,000 clients in 17 Sub-Saharan African countries.
