FINCA strives to end poverty through sustainable solutions, responsible financial services, and life-enhancing products that are driven by the needs of the people we serve in communities around the world.

05/29/2026

For more than two decades, FINCA RD Congo has worked alongside communities to expand access to financial services that help people build a pathway out of poverty. When conflict escalated in the country’s east in January 2025, FINCA DRC’s eastern branches closed overnight and faced the real possibility of tens of thousands of clients losing access to their funds entirely.

However, as a result of FINCA DRC’s investment in digital infrastructure, agent banking, financial literacy, and women’s financial inclusion—clients still accessed funds, transacted through agents, and restructured loans digitally.

This serves as a crucial reminder that resilience in fragile markets is built long before crisis hits. Patient capital and gender-intentional investment are not peripheral strategies; they are foundational to financial institutions so they can withstand shocks and continue serving communities when it matters most.

"The Extraordinary Things that Happen When We Build Together." Don't miss the Tuesday May 19 episode of "My Legacy," featuring Academy Award®-winning actress and FINCA Ambassador of Hope Natalie Portman. Hosted by Martin Luther King III and Arndrea Waters King, "My Legacy" presents conversations with inspiring public figures who are joined by an important mentor or other "plus one" of their choosing. For her "plus one," Natalie chose Lawrence Yanovitch, a former member of FINCA's senior leadership team (1991 - 2006). When she first joined as Ambassador of Hope almost 20 years ago, Natalie and Lawrence travelled to FINCA programs all over the world and formed a lifelong friendship.

But the "My Legacy" conversation is much more than just a trip down memory lane. Thoughtfully guided by Martin Luther King III, whose very name is synonymous with a commitment to human dignity, the wide-ranging episode focuses on the ethical implications of AI and other technologies, the persistence of gender roles, and our legacy to future generations.
It is a call to meet all the challenges of the present moment with hope and a joyful heart.

Natalie's episode airs Tuesday, May 19th — watch the trailer: https://bit.ly/3PJ1r8Z

FINCA Global CEO Andrée Simon recently visited Kariakoo Market in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, meeting traders and FINCA Microfinance Bank customers whose businesses have grown through access to inclusive financial services.

“Kariakoo stands as a strong example of how inclusive finance can drive meaningful economic and social transformation both for entrepreneurs and for their communities,” said Andree.
Through spending time with our customers we not only heard about their successes, but it allowed us to gain deeper insight into the challenges they face — insights that help us co-create solutions that deliver lasting impact.

The visit took place alongside a gathering of global leaders and CEOs of FINCA’s Africa subsidiaries to collaborate on business transformation efforts and to advance our shared vision for greater customer impact across the continent.
