We’re excited to announce a powerful new partnership between Fortune Credit and Turaco Insurance to launch the Fortune Boda Cover — a health and life insurance product embedded directly into our boda boda loans. For many riders, medical emergencies can quickly become financial crises, threatening both their livelihoods and their families’ well-being. The Fortune Boda Cover provides a safety net that ensures riders can recover without losing income or assets. What Makes Fortune Boda Cover Unique With premiums starting at just KES 100 per month, the cover provides: ✅ Hospital cash benefits during inpatient stays ✅ Accident and life coverage for peace of mind ✅ Income protection during recovery periods ✅ Funeral expense support for families during difficult times This insurance is simple, affordable, and accessible, designed specifically for the realities faced by Kenya’s boda boda riders. Building a Healthier, Resilient Boda Boda Nation With over 20,000 active borrowers, this partnership marks a major step toward protecting thousands more riders across the country. At Fortune Credit, our mission goes beyond financing — it’s about empowering livelihoods and building resilience through inclusive financial solutions that make a tangible difference in people’s lives. Here’s to a future where every rider can work, earn, and live with confidence. 🛵💪

This week, Fortune Credit attended the Youth Sustainable Development Network (YSDN) Conference 2025, supported by GOGLA and held in Nairobi from August 12–14. We were proudly represented by our Head of Growth & Innovation, Benson Mbogo. Over three transformative days, youth leaders, ecosystem players, and sustainability advocates 🌏 came together under the theme: “Empowering Youth for a Sustainable Future: Innovate, Collaborate, Transform” 💡. The conference sparked real conversations and actionable ideas to tackle barriers to youth access to finance 💰. Driving Youth Financial Inclusion With over 45.5% of Kenyan youth still financially excluded, Fortune Credit is taking bold action: ✅ Over 15% of our customers are youth  ✅ Providing innovative credit solutions tailored to young entrepreneurs ✅ Offering embedded insurance to manage risk ✅ Delivering financial education to fuel ambitions and sustainable growth 📈 Youth are brimming with ideas — our role is to build the bridges they need to succeed and unlock their full potential.

Today, in partnership with Epicenter Africa, we held a town hall session in Machakos County, training smallholder farmers on sustainable farming practices and how to access financing for solar-powered irrigation pumps. At Fortune Credit, we believe that educated farmers are empowered borrowers  they make informed financial decisions, manage risks more effectively, and build resilient farms that sustain livelihoods and strengthen Kenya’s food systems. Why This Matters: Over 70% of Kenya’s rural population depends on agriculture for their livelihoods. In regions like Machakos, where annual rainfall averages below 800mm, farmers often face prolonged dry spells and reduced yields. Access to solar irrigation and proper agronomic training can increase productivity by 2–3 times, allowing farmers to produce consistently throughout the year. By equipping farmers with both financial literacy and sustainable technologies, we’re not just lending — we’re building knowledge, resilience, and opportunity for every farmer we serve.

On Tuesday, October 28th, 2025, Fortune Credit was honored to host the team from Envest Microfinance, led by their CEO Jon Bishop, together with members of their senior investment team, at our offices in Nairobi. The visit was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect, reflect, and celebrate the journey we have shared toward expanding financial inclusion across Kenya. A Partnership Built on Shared Purpose In 2021, Envest Microfinance placed their confidence in Fortune Credit’s mission to empower underserved communities by offering affordable and inclusive financial solutions that truly transform lives. As our first international investment partner, Envest’s support came at a crucial moment in our growth. Their belief in our vision to uplift marginalized and low-income populations, including women, youth, and rural entrepreneurs, laid the foundation for a partnership grounded in trust, collaboration, and long-term impact. Transforming Lives Through Impact Four years later, the results of this partnership can be seen across the communities we serve. 🌾 62% of our portfolio now supports women entrepreneurs, helping them grow businesses, support their families, and strengthen their communities. 💡 24% of our financing goes to youth-led enterprises, inspiring innovation and creating jobs for Kenya’s growing youth population. 🏡 54% of our clients live in rural areas, where access to financial services is often limited. These numbers tell powerful stories of resilience and progress. They represent lives changed and communities strengthened through access to fair and reliable financial solutions. Gratitude and Continued Collaboration We are deeply grateful to Envest Microfinance and to all our investors and partners who continue to walk this journey with us. Your commitment and belief in our work have made it possible to bring opportunity and hope to those who need it most. Together, we continue to prove that when purpose-driven institutions work side by side, real transformation happens — one entrepreneur, one household, and one community at a time.
