Marketplace Lending Platform in East Africa - Lendable case study

In this case study, we examine an alternative marketplace lending platform that connects impact and institutional debt investors with alternative lenders in East Africa. Pioneered by the U.S. company, Lendable, Inc., the platform helps alternative lenders access structured financing to scale their operations. The FIBR team worked with Lendable to examine PAYGo financing as a new asset class and whether it could connect investors to low-income customers.
