Access to Finance Rwanda (AFR) has contracted Oxford Policy Management (OPM) to
undertake a critical study of the Savings and Credit Cooperatives (SACCOs) sector in
Rwanda, which includes developing a practical set of measures and an action plan to ensure
SACCOs become fully sustainable financial service providers, especially to the rural poor.
The assignment is aimed at developing a strategy and concrete roadmap that will lead to the
entire SACCO sector becoming not just sustainable, but able to grow and increase outreach
in terms of numbers of people served, savings mobilised and loans provided, particularly in
rural areas.
