The Banking and Finance industry is a rapidly growing industry in Kenya. That said, here is a list of all licensed Microfinance Institutions in the country.
These are institutions regulated by the Central Bank of Kenya that serve low-income consumers with financial services such as loans, savings, insurance, money transfers, and remittances. They primarily target the unemployed and small business owners who do not have access to standard banking systems.
Microfinance Institutions have played an important role in increasing access to financial services throughout Kenya in recent years. They complement commercial banks rather than competing with them by providing services to the Kenyan populace that does not have access to commercial banks.
