MCE Social Capital (MCE) is a nonprofit impact investing firm that uses a pioneering loan guarantee model to generate economic opportunities for hundreds of thousands of people, especially women and people in rural areas, in more than 35 countries across the developing world.
Backed by more than $130M in loan guarantees from over 100 Guarantors, MCE makes loans to (a) Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) that help people living in rural areas gain access to credit, savings accounts, insurance, healthcare and health education, business education, and technical assistance, and (b) Small and Growing Businesses (SGBs) that create jobs, help smallholder farmers, facilitate clean water and energy, and increase household savings.
Since its founding in 2006, MCE has disbursed over $150M in loans to nearly 100 organizations, primarily MFIs. In March 2017, in partnership with USAID's Partnering to Accelerate Entrepreneurship (PACE) Initiative, MCE launched its new SGB Fund to scale its growing portfolio of powerful SGBs. MCE’s investments span across Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, Asia, and other challenging parts of the world, and include a variety of sectors, including microfinance, agricultural value chains, clean energy, water, sanitation, and hygiene, and non-financial services like health and education.
MCE was honored as an ImpactAsset’s Top 50 Impact Investment Fund in 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.MCE Social Capital Address
