Up to USD 80 mn in love for renewables and SMEs. SANAD Fund and Green for Growth Fund (GGF) are planning to finance USD 30-80 mn-worth of Egyptian SMEs and renewable energy projects in the coming period, Mohamed Morsy, the Egypt-based manager of impact investor Finance in Motion, told Al Mal. The funds are also seeking domestic financing to support investments, Morsy said, without providing further details. German-based asset manager and self-styled impact investor Finance in Motion pledged USD 100 mn in funding to support SMEs last year.

An earlier version of this article mistakenly said the funds are planning to invest USD 30-80 mn in the coming period, implying the proceeds will be used in a direct investment. The funds are rather looking to finance USD 30-80 mn-worth of projects.
