In this episode, I sit down with Brian Milder, Founder and CEO of Aceli Africa, to explore how blended finance can be used catalytically to unlock capital for agricultural SMEs. Brian explains the origins of Aceli Africa and its mission to incentivize lenders to serve high-impact but underserved market segments in East Africa. We dive into the data-driven approach that Aceli takes, including how they align incentives with the impact they want to achieve. Brian shares valuable lessons learned over four years of operation and discusses the potential to apply Aceli’s model to other sectors and regions. This is an insightful conversation for anyone interested in financing solutions that address market failures in agriculture and beyond.
