What if future repayments on loans to small businesses and farmers could unlock more capital for lenders, allowing them to finance even more customers? In this episode of Financing Africa’s Future, Sucharita Mukherjee, Co-founder and CEO of Kaleidofin, joins Kaara Wainaina of FSD Africa to explore how securitisation can connect institutional investors with last-mile lenders. Drawing on the Apollo Agriculture transaction in Kenya, which raised KES 276 million (around $2.5 million) through local-currency securitisation, they discuss how innovative financial solutions can expand access to finance and strengthen Africa’s capital markets. Subscribe to the FSD Africa channel for more insights on financial inclusion, SME financing and Africa’s financial future. #FinancingAfricasFuture #Securitisation #SMEFinance #AgriculturalFinance #CapitalMarkets
