WHY THIS MATTERS

Kenya’s diaspora community sends over $4 billion annually. But where is the ownership? We are laying the groundwork for a financial institution built by us, for us.

QUIETLY, PRIVATELY, BOLDLY .

  • There is no major bank built and owned by the global diaspora.
  • The Diasporans are the largest foreign exchange contributor and funder for the Kenyan economy but gain none of the power or profits their money creates.
  • Despite sending money every year, Diasporans see little to no return the control and benefits of the low foreign exchange rates and remittance fees go elsewhere.
  • And most importantly, the value of your monetary contributions is captured by others.

This initiative will provide a unique path for a sustainable Diaspora financial empowerment.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE

  • Diasporans globally.
  • Diaspora professionals seeking to shape future financial services.
  • Diasporan individuals aligned with the vision of private, long-term community ownership.
  • Diasporan participants able to join confidential briefings under NDA.
