In 2025, SANAD reached a milestone that reflects both resilience and long-term commitment to the region, surpassing USD 1 billion in cumulative investments across the Middle East, North Africa, and selected Sub-Saharan African markets. In a year marked by economic uncertainty and regional conflict, we returned to a clear growth trajectory, deploying more than USD 160 million in new investments to ensure MSMEs continued to access the liquidity they need to operate, employ, and grow. With this the fund has also supported over 497,000 jobs since its inception, out of which 34% held by women.
