  • Expanding Finance for Water Service Providers in Kenya
    Expanding Finance for Water Service Providers in Kenya USAID’s Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Finance (WASH-FIN) Program Country Brief Series INTRODUCTION. USAID’s Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Finance (WASH-FIN) Kenya program, which started in April 2017, is working to support closing the financing gap between the currently available government budget and the total investment needed to reach universal water and sanitation access by 2030. The program operates in urban areas with creditworthy and/or efficiently managed Water Service Providers (WSPs) that have responsibility for both water supply and sanitation. By partnering with national and county governments, development partners, local financial institutions, and other stakeholders, the program supports public and private water and sanitation service providers in accessing additional capital for sustainable, climate-resilient water and sanitation infrastructure. By exploring new sources of finance, the program complements and leverages funding from traditional sources such as taxes, transfers, and tariffs, and supports the WASH sector in Kenya on its journey to self-reliance. Key Takeaways Overcoming Fundamental Governance Challenges Can Unlock Commercial Financing; Government Leadership and Development Partner Coordination is Crucial to Maximize Sector Investment; Commercial Financing is Hampered by Lack of Bankable Projects, Weak Creditworthiness, and Limited Supply of Affordable Financing; Project Preparation and Transaction Support Can Build Stronger Demand and Link Access to Financing; and Commercial Financing Will Play a Small but Important Role in Sector Financing. This publication was produced for review by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). It was prepared by Tetra Tech. The authors’ views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views of USAID or the United States Government.
