Norsad Capital

We are an impact investor and private credit provider that offers tailor-made debt solutions to profitable growth-stage companies that deliver desirable social impact in Africa. Our principal operational area is the Southern Africa region (SADC). We support the growth of profitable companies in Africa through tailor-made debt finance solutions, enabling them continue to have substantial social impact through the services and employment they provide.

Norsad was first established in 1990, a collaboration between the Nordic and Southern African Development Community (SADC) governments, and operated as a multilateral agency based in Lusaka, Zambia. In 2011, we transformed into a limited liability company, Norsad Finance, incorporated in Botswana and accredited by the International Financial Services Centre. In 2022, we rebranded to Norsad Capital in line with our strategy to scale and deepen our impact in Africa.
