In August 2024, SANAD along with a consortium of leading finance institutions came together and signed a financing agreement with the Bank of Palestine.
2024 was marked by profound uncertainty and ongoing conflict, conditions that persist today. Yet, it is precisely in these periods of disruption that the strength of a long-term, impact-driven approach becomes most apparent. For the SANAD Fund, these moments reinforce the urgency of our goal: to support local micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) across the Middle East, North Africa (MENA), and select countries in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), and to help shape the resilient, inclusive economies of tomorrow. Despite these challenges, our multi-faceted and adaptive strategy allowed us to deepen our impact on the ground. In 2024 SANAD yet again expanded its outreach to MSMEs with 108,900 active borrowers served through 44 partner institutions.
Figures as of Q2 2025
Distinct investment opportunities The eco.business Fund offers two separate sub-funds that follow the same investment strategy: Latin America (Sub-Fund I) and Africa (Sub-Fund II). Although the continents are economically and culturally different, they share important characteristics, including high growth potential, diversification opportunities, unique biodiversity and both are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change.
We are all affected by climate change and biodiversity loss From pollination and timber to fish stocks and carbon capture, economies rely on the natural world. This natural capital is being destroyed by biodiversity loss and the effects of climate change. If we don’t act, global annual GDP could decline by $2.7 trillion by 2030 – with low-income regions the most severely affected. Latin America and Africa are on the front line of this struggle and need solutions. But businesses in these regions struggle to access the financing they need make their operations sustainable. We must work together to address this funding gap.
