East Africa faces a $41B+ annual SME financing gap. Traditional banks require collateral of 150% or more, offer maximum tenors of 3–5 years, and set minimum ticket sizes above $10M — leaving the segment below that structurally unserved. 

Norvatis Investment Partners is built to serve the most underfinanced part of East Africa’s private sector: SMEs and mid-market businesses seeking USD 500K-10M in funding.
