About the fund

Growth Investment Partners Zambia is a debt and revenue-based finance fund established by British International Investment to support small business growth and financial inclusion in Zambia. The fund deploys capital in individual investments ranging from $500,000 to $5 million, targeting a total mobilization of $300 million across approximately 150 small enterprises. By providing flexible, local currency financing tailored to the operational needs of Zambian businesses, the fund addresses a critical gap in access to growth capital in the region. The fund is structured as a self-sustaining vehicle designed to recycle capital over time, enabling continued support for the Zambian small business ecosystem for decades. GIP Zambia targets development finance institutions and institutional investors seeking exposure to financial inclusion and employment creation outcomes in sub-Saharan Africa.
