Family Bank has secured Sh2.6 billion from British International Investment (BII) to expand credit access for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) across Kenya.

• At least 50 percent of the funds are earmarked for women-led businesses and agribusiness-related enterprises.
• Funds will be directed towards financing trade for MSMEs, crucial for their growth and overcoming foreign currency liquidity constraints, as stated by Family Bank CEO Nancy Njau.
• This partnership aims to support MSMEs, which comprise 98 percent of all businesses in Kenya and are vital for employment, according to BII East Africa and Head of Office Regional Director Seema Dhanani.
