Fred Pelser's current jobs
Norfund, FMO and Rabobank have entered into a partnership in 2016 to reaffirm their long-term commitment to Africa’s future development, growth potential and the local financial sector. The partners are committed to strengthen and develop effective, inclusive financial systems in Africa. The partners currently hold minority stakes in several financial service providers (FSPs) in Sub-Saharan Africa which they have agreed to pool together. The new company, Arise B.V., will start with USD 660 million in assets and fresh capital allocation for anticipated growth to USD 1 billion. Arise B.V. will take and manage minority stakes in African FSPs. The key ambition is to build strong and stable FSPs that will serve retail, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), the rural sector, and clients who have not previously had access to financial services. Norfund, FMO and Rabobank have been active in Africa for many years with a positive impact in local markets. Through Arise B.V., the partners will continue to adequately support the growth and development of the FSPs by providing among others technical assistance and management services in the field of governance, management, marketing, innovation, compliance and risk management. Capital will also be allocated for new investments.
