Verdant Capital Hybrid Fund

Compiled from public sources

Verdant Capital Hybrid Fund, LP is a specialist private credit fund managed by Verdant Capital. The fund provides hybrid capital instruments, such as subordinated debt and preferred equity, to Inclusive Financial Institutions (IFIs) across Sub-Saharan Africa. The fund aims to address the significant financing gap faced by micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) and micro-entrepreneurs. By providing this 'hybrid' capital, the fund strengthens IFIs' balance sheets, enabling them to crowd in more senior debt from other investors and increase their lending capacity to businesses with high development impact, such as those in agriculture, education, healthcare, and housing finance.
