About Transformational SME

What We Do

Transformational SME is a vibrant, diverse and international community of Christian investors who are committed to the potential and practice of business for the common good. These investors contribute capital, usually in the form of personal, interest-free, repayable loans, to a private community fund professionally managed by the TSME team.

The capital pooled in the TSME fund is then patiently deployed into carefully screened SMEs which meet rigorous TSME criteria. These investments are typically offered as working capital or capital expenditure loans, at competitive rates, and are generally repayable over 3-5 years.

Investor-Mentors

TSME assigns investor-mentors to every business for post-investment follow-up. This results in enhanced accountability, support, and impact.

Where appropriate, TSME also assists companies in the fund portfolio with strategic recruitment needs, leveraging its extensive international network and partnerships.

 

Extensive Experience

The TSME management team is composed of individuals with extensive experience in SME business ownership and growth, international business, impact investing, entrepreneurship, finance, business strategy, marketing and sales, human resources, governance, general business management across multiple industry sectors, environmental stewardship, and diverse geo-political and socio-religious settings.

TSME has networks and local investor-representatives in North and South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Oceania. We collaborate together to cast vision and provide effective on-ramps for involvement in the dynamic Business as Mission movement of which TSME is a part.
