Financial services
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.

SOLUTI is committed to causing positive change in the vulnerable populations through providing credit facilities and capacity building/Technical Assistance to Microfinance institutions, (MFIs), Savings and credit co-operatives (SACCOs), Small and Medium Enterprises (in Agriculture).
Overall, Soluti aims for a strong additionality and positive social and environmental impacts, in return for an expected level of risk and financial return in the medium to long term.
