Rwinolray Investment’s offerings are designed to meet the needs of clients in different industries, with a special focus on infrastructure, manufacturing, agribusiness, services, and financial markets.

Financial Institution
In the developing world, 2.5 billion adults don't have a bank account and 200 million businesses lack access to credit. Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd works through financial institutions to provide much-needed access to finance for millions of individuals and micro, small, and medium enterprises that we would never be able to reach directly. This is an important part of the World Bank Group strategy to end extreme poverty and build shared prosperity.
Agribusiness & Forestry
Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd has made agribusiness a priority because of its potential for broad development impact and especially strong role in poverty reduction. We combine investments and advisory services to help the sector address higher demand and escalating food prices in an environmentally sustainable and socially inclusive way.

IFC invests across the agribusiness supply chain—from farm to retail—to help boost production, increase liquidity, improve logistics and distribution, and expand access to credit for small farmers.
Funds
In developing countries, the lack of risk capital hinders economic growth and thwarts entrepreneurship. By providing capital in emerging markets where it is scarce, private equity and venture capital can play a critical role in development, helping to build the dynamic, job-creating companies that drive prosperity, provide essential goods and services, and strengthen the middle class.

Enabling Private Equity Investment in Fragile Markets.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are important drivers of growth in economies across Sub-Saharan Africa, accounting for about 90% of all businesses in these markets. Rwinolray Investment’s research shows that more than 17 million SMEs in developing countries have unmet financing needs. Young, growing businesses lack the track record on which banks base their lending criteria. SMEs are often too large to be served by microfinance institutions, yet too small for commercial banks. They require ‘risk capital’ – forms of finance that have a higher risk tolerance than bank loans.

Through Funds, Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd backs promising local firms that would typically lack access to finance.

We work with private equity funds in emerging markets because they can have a significant impact on company growth and job creation. Our work with them bring capital to promising companies and mobilized money for renewable energy, infrastructure, and other projects in some of the world’s poorest countries.
Funds
Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd freeze on investment in K-12 private, fee-charging education. Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd is freezing investments in K-12 private, fee-charging schools. This decision will apply to our direct investments, advisory work, and indirect investments resulting from new investments in private equity funds. We are taking this step in response to concerns by external stakeholders about the impact of private schools on education quality and access. In addition, we will request that the World Bank’s Independent Evaluation Group evaluate Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd investments in K-12 private education and review impacts on educational outcomes, access, poverty and inequality. This evaluation will be followed by an inclusive and transparent consultation process, bringing together the World Bank Group’s Board, education experts, and civil society, to determine whether there are any circumstances under which future Rwinolray Investment(Pty) Ltd investments in private, fee-charging K-12 schools could be made. This freeze will not impact our work to invest in new tools, such as in education technology and infrastructure, that can help improve learning and access for all students. Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd will also continue its work in higher education, including universities and vocational schools, and in early childhood services.
Infrastructure
Sustainable infrastructure is critical for addressing developmental challenges in emerging markets.
Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd offers long-term financing and industry-leading expertise to develop infrastructure projects that provide essential services—including electricity, telecommunications, transportation, water & and sanitation—in partnership with the private sector.

As part of the World Bank Group, we also work with governments and development partners to create a business environment that attracts private capital to infrastructure sectors.
Health
Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd has an active portfolio of $14 thousand in health care companies in emerging markets. Through these investments, IFC helps private providers meet the soaring demand for health care and supports governments in their goal of reaching Universal Health Coverage by 2030. Our investments and advisory services foster best practices in health care and life sciences, promote the deployment of innovative technologies, and advance quality care. Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd also participates in several public-private partnerships in health care.
Manufacturing
Countries which have successfully developed and reduced poverty over the past century have done so largely by developing their manufacturing sectors. In most countries, manufacturing generates more economic activity per dollar of production than any other business sector.

Manufacturers directly create jobs across a range of skill levels, enabling people, especially women, to move from informal work to formal employment with benefits, such as more security, better pay, social insurance and access to financial services. Manufacturing creates opportunity across industry value chains by increasing demand for raw materials, energy, construction, technology, and services from a broad array of supplying industries in the economy.

Tourism, Retail and Property
Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd focuses on key industries that form the foundation of sustainable growth and that provide affordable goods and services to consumers, create jobs, contribute to government revenue, and stimulate the growth of local small and medium enterprises.
Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd supports investments in the retail sector in developing countries because of its economic importance in terms of employment, consumer spending, and tax revenues.

The global retail industry employs more than 150 million people and accounts for about 9 percent of global GDP—and another 20 percent indirectly. As emerging markets attract modern retail, there are many possible benefits, including increased productivity, economic growth, capital investment, job creation and exports.

Today, more than half of the world’s population lives in urban areas. The United Nations forecasts that by 2050, an additional 2.6 billion people will be living in cities, most of them located in developing countries.

Rapid urbanization has created booming demand for housing and commercial property.  Through investments in property, Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd aims to promote development of affordable housing and essential urban infrastructure, incorporating the latest green building standards and technology.

Home ownership provides security and an important way for families to build wealth. But in most emerging markets, there is a shortage of housing. Rwinolray Investment’s $ 360 thousand portfolio of affordable housing projects is helping more low-and middle-income people become homeowners for the first time.

The construction sector is a driver of economic activity and job creation around the world. The property sector also supports employment in related industries like financial services, consumer product manufacturing, and retail. In addition to housing, Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd invests in commercial property to create the infrastructure businesses need to grow.

Given that buildings account for over a quarter of all man-made carbon dioxide emissions, investments in green buildings are one of the most important ways to fight climate change. Rwinolray Investment (Pty) Ltd works with clients to adopt the latest technologies and standards to reduce water and energy use, and minimize solid waste.

Rwinolray Investment’s Edge tool is a green building classification system designed specifically for emerging markets. It provides clients with technical solutions for going green and captures capital costs and projected operational savings. EDGE can be used by building professionals without the need for expensive green building specialists.

Rwinolray Investment’s portfolio of commercial property investments comprises over $19 billion of investments in over 30 projects
