Beltone Leasing Secures $20 Million Loan to Boost Financial Inclusion and Sustainable Financing

Beltone Leasing and Factoring, a wholly owned subsidiary of Beltone Holding, has secured USD 20 million in funding from two leading impact investment funds managed by Germany-based Finance in Motion GmbH: the SANAD Fund for MSME and the Green for Growth Fund (GGF).

The funding is equally divided, with USD 10 million from each fund, with a repayment tenor of five years. SANAD’s contribution will support financial inclusion for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and low-income households across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). GGF’s portion will be dedicated to financing renewable energy, energy efficiency, and sustainable resource use initiatives in MENA and neighboring regions.

This transaction marks a key milestone in Beltone Leasing and Factoring’s strategy to deliver innovative non-bank financial solutions that promote economic empowerment and environmental sustainability, aligned with Egypt’s Vision 2030. It also reflects Beltone’s commitment to advancing sustainability across all its operations.

Amir Ghannam, Deputy Head of NBFIs for Leasing, Factoring, and Consumer Finance, said: “Securing foreign currency funding from institutions like SANAD and GGF enhances our ability to diversify our capital base and offer more competitive financing solutions. This funding will enable us to strengthen our support for MSMEs while accelerating green projects that contribute to a more sustainable and resilient future.”

Sherif Hassan, Group Treasurer and Managing Director of Debt Capital Markets, said: “This funding reflects our strong collaboration with Finance in Motion and our commitment to channeling strategic capital to grow Beltone Leasing and Factoring. It also highlights our focus on ESG-driven financing, in line with the broader Beltone’s mission to support sustainable and impactful growth.”

Both funds are managed by Finance in Motion GmbH, a globally recognized impact asset manager focused on advancing sustainable development in emerging and developing economies, in collaboration with development finance institutions, private investors, and governments.
