Who is our customer

The Pan-African Housing Fund, managed by Phatisa Property Fund Manager Ltd., has been established to provide risk capital to housing projects as a means to increase the housing supply for affordable and middle income market segments in collaboration with local developers.

What is our funding objective?

The Fund will support local small and medium enterprise (SME) housing developers with scarce risk capital. It will also increase the supply of good quality residential housing stock to the Fund’s target income groups, with the intention of introducing best practices in housing development finance.

Why do we fund this investment?

African growth is leading to rapid urbanization, an expanding labor force and the rise of middle-class African consumers, who in turn are demanding affordable housing solutions. By investing in PAHF, FMO hopes to contribute to an increase in the supply of affordable residential housing stock by enabling supply-side finance to SME developers.
