Who are we ?

Launched in March 2019 by the Women’s Investment Club (WIC) Senegal, WIC Capital is the first investment fund that exclusively targets women-led businesses in Senegal and Côte d’Ivoire. The Fund brings together local and international institutional and individual investors, who pool their resources to invest in women-owned micro and small enterprises (MSMEs) in Senegal and Côte d’Ivoire.

The Fund invests through a mix of equity and quasi-equity in companies across all sectors that are founded by women, at least 50% owned or managed by women, or with a majority female management team.

Our mission is to unlock the full potential of women-led businesses in Senegal and Côte d’Ivoire through tailored financing, technical assistance and business support, providing a platform for collaboration between local public and private sector actors to shape investment in women’s businesses.
