    TBC Bank Uzbekistan secures $10mn loan from responsAbility Investments AG for microlending expansion

    TBC Bank Uzbekistan obtained a $10mn credit line from responsAbility Investments AG, a Switzerland-based impact investor. This financing will aid the expansion of TBC Uzbekistan’s microlending efforts, supporting the growth of the digital bank’s loan portfolio and promoting financial inclusion in Uzbekistan, Central Asia's most populous country.

    Nika Kurdiani, CEO of TBC Group operations in Uzbekistan, expressed the importance of the credit line: "This funding from responsAbility is crucial for broadening our funding base and expanding our support to individuals and their microenterprises. We remain dedicated to promoting financial inclusion and economic growth through innovative financial solutions."

    TBC Bank Uzbekistan, a subsidiary of London-listed TBC Group, operates through physical and digital channels in Georgia and as a branchless digital bank in Uzbekistan. The mobile bank is a pivotal player in Uzbekistan's digital financial ecosystem, which includes Payme, a digital payments app, and Payme Nasiya, an instalment credit business.

    responsAbility Investments AG specializes in private market investments, focusing on financial inclusion, climate finance, and sustainable food. With assets under management of $5bn, the company manages a portfolio of approximately 280 companies across 70 countries.

    This credit line follows a previous $10mn credit line from responsAbility's Green Climate Partnership Fund (GCPF), aimed at expanding TBC Bank Uzbekistan’s green lending pipeline for environmentally sustainable projects.
