Short-term Consultancy: Kenya Investment Mechanism Senior Gender Advisor Background KIM is a five-year activity designed to unlock $520 million of investments for targeted areas of agriculture; energy; infrastructure; health; water sanitation and hygiene (WASH); and the Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE) and Prosper Africa initiatives. Other targeted areas authorized (subject to funding) include education workforce development trade and environmental tourism. KIM’s geographic region is East Africa (defined as the East African Community plus Ethiopia). KIM provides business transaction support through a diverse range of sustainable partnerships with and among businesses institutions government counterparts (country and national) and other development partners. These partnerships will help scale and replicate creative approaches to unlock finance and investments reduce risks of extending credit to the target sectors and offer testing of innovative business models that can be scaled. According to International Finance Corporation (IFC) women entrepreneurs confront a $300 billion financing gap globally and nearly 70% of women entrepreneurs have inadequate or no access to financial services. Women entrepreneurs in Kenya in particular face a $2.7 billion credit gap along with disproportionate barriers to full economic participation despite the potential of the female economy to unlock significant growth. The challenges limiting women’s access to finance in Kenya are multifaceted. Commercial banks’ requirements—including real collateral and business records—can be prohibitive for some women. Other women entrepreneurs are unaware of the types of financial products and services in the market and lack the networks requisite to connect with sources of financing. Limited financial literacy also generates distrust in the formal financial sector. KIM aims to build upon its existing relationships with Kenyan financial institutions and investors to mobilize long-term commercial financing for women entrepreneurs. This approach promotes the development of a competitive market for financial services through results-based incentives to demonstrate proof-of-concept and promote long-term sustainability. By financing women-led businesses Kenyan financial institutions have the potential to expand their client base increase profits and decrease credit risk while also facilitating long-lasting economic growth and development.
