SELFINA is a for-profit micro-leasing company that provides business training and other economic empowerment services to over 11,000 active clients--lower-income (mostly rural) women in Tanzania. Its micro leases help women acquire assets that create or add economic value, and which can also serve as collateral to support further business growth. SELFINA has also started offering longer term, larger leases for business expansion purposes to those women entrepreneurs who have a successful credit record with SELFINA and prospects to grow a larger business.

GBF's investment will help SELFINA grow, expand geographically, and attract additional investment. It will also support SELFINA in a new financial product: developing a "Next Stage Fund" offering larger, longer-term financing and technical assistance to repeat clients.
