“The greater challenge we see is not one for financing, but one for getting the fintechs investment-ready", 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐥 𝐌𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐚, Senior Manager, Access-to-Finance Programs, @AsigmaGroup while presenting the proposed Fintech Fund at #FAFC2026.
In addition, he noted that with 68% of fintechs relying on self-financing and 48% waiting 12+ months for funding, the Fund is being designed around different business models, stages and financing needs.
On his part, 𝐉𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐬 𝐄𝐭𝐨𝐭, Investment Analyst, @AsigmaGroup, explained:
“This fund is not one single product. It's basically tailor-made to match the financing of these fintechs.”
The proposed UGX 8.3bn Fund would use blended finance and is designed to recycle capital 5.2× over 10 years. A pilot of 3-5 fintechs is planned before wider intake.
Banks, institutions and investors were encouraged to make their interest known and say how they want to participate.
