About KIFC:
Rwanda aims to become a knowledge-based and high-income economy by 2050. To reach these goals, the country’s leadership has identified several pathways, including creating and positioning Rwanda as a financial services and business hub in the region – an strategic national initiative termed “Kigali International Finance Centre” (KIFC).
To foster and promote a conducive pro-business financial environment in Rwanda.
Kigali International Financial Centre (KIFC) is a national flagship initiative created to transform Rwanda into an international financial destination. It includes Rwanda's financial ecosystem and investors looking to set up in Rwanda to invest across the African continent. KIFC advocates for the highest regulatory standards, industry best practices, and the most attractive products and services to suit the needs of global investors and financial institutions. Rwanda aims primarily to serve as a fund domicile and jurisdiction where local, regional, and international investors can consolidate their investments/assets.
