THE INSTRUMENT
Blended finance with a closing mechanism.
Concessional capital from investors funds processor formalisation, certification, and social impact measurement across three facilities in Ghana, Kenya, and Nigeria. As facilities achieve certification milestones, I-TEC Impact Certificates are issued and sold to corporate buyers. Certificate revenues provide the repayment mechanism.
The programme is structured to be financially self-sustaining once at scale. Investor capital is the enabling layer, not the permanent subsidy.
