Our focus on ESG

We build partnerships, mainly in rural areas of Eastern Africa, with local partner institutions (Microfinance Institutions, Cooperatives and Agriculture Small and Medium Enterprises). We finance and support these organisations for the long run and aim to foster their development and autonomy.

Our focus on ESG

SOLUTI’s focus on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) is purposed on the establishment of systems to proactively identify and manage the environmental, social and governance risks inherent in its operations. The policy applies to all financial transactions and capacity building operations. All loan agreements will contain covenants requiring compliance with social and environmental requirements.

 

Our ESG policy sets our commitments to manage social, environmental and governance risks to ensure sustainability of its operations. As an impact investment entity, we seek to achieve a balance on both "financial" and "social" objectives, while addressing environmental challenges but also contributing to some sustainable development goals.

Our focus on SDGs

SOLUTI’s impact goals focus on:

  • Promoting local economic growth

Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all.
