AGC Deal Announcement: LeadFund Capital

We are proud to announce our new working capital facility in partnership with LeadFund Capital – a fund expanding access to finance for Southern African SMEs. 

This facility will support small and medium-sized businesses across Southern Africa with access to flexible working capital solutions designed to improve cash flow, strengthen liquidity, and enable sustainable growth. 

These SMEs supply goods and services to their local communities every day – growing, employing, and driving local economies forward – yet many remain underserved by traditional financing channels. Too formal for microfinance, too small for banks and conventional lenders, sitting in a gap the market has struggled to fill. 

LeadFund exists to serve exactly this segment. 

Since inception, LeadFund today supports more than 600 small businesses across Southern Africa. 

We’re thrilled to be working together to expand access to working capital where it is needed most and supporting the businesses that quietly power emerging economies every day.
