I am delighted to introduce the Entrepreneurs Financial Centre – EFC Zambia Corporate Website which will give you an insight into our business, our identity and the role we continue to play in the financial sector.
As one of the leading Micro Finance Institutions in Zambia, EFC boasts of a rich and strong 22-year history during which the business has successfully undergone major transformations and played a pivotal role in supporting entrepreneurial growth in Zambia.
We take pride in this rich heritage and in our mission “to partner with MSMEs and increase their access to specialized financial services while contributing to wealth creation, improvement of people’s living conditions and development of Zambia’s private sector”. Through our well-defined and focused strategic framework, our aim is to leverage this rich heritage to take EFC to the next level of success. We will invest in the welfare and development of our staff, who serve our clients to deliver sustainable returns for the Company’s shareholders. Underpinning our strategic framework is a set of core values which ensure we are committed to the highest standards of good corporate governance, ethical behavior and regulatory compliance.
In line with our Vision and Mission, EFC Zambia has grown to serve over 20,000 clients countrywide and created various products and services tailored to meet the financial needs of Micro, Small and Medium Entrepreneurs.
In addition to fulfilling our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) mandate, we have a unique, market-leading product proposition called the Client Share Ownership Program (CSOP). Through CSOP, all our clients have an opportunity to become shareholders in EFC Zambia upon timely servicing of their loans, a powerful way of empowering local entrepreneurs. As a management team, we owe our rich heritage and record of success to the confidence and trust which our stakeholders (Shareholders, Board of Directors, Partners and loyal Clients) have placed in us. We feel a deep sense of duty of care to these stakeholders and we will strive to be good stewards.
I hope you enjoy learning more about us on our website, and on behalf of all my colleagues in EFC Zambia, I invite and welcome you to join and partner with us on our mission to develop local enterprise.
