9 KCB Business Model : Agricultural value chain financing o Partnering with different actors within the value chain: Agricultural inputs suppliers, Agricultural Insurance Providers, Technical Support Providers (technical assistance, quality assessment), Processors and buyers among others
10 KCB Business Model : Agricultural value chain financing (cont d) o Promoting Innovation in Agricultural Finance: Agricultural Insurance Cover, Inventory Credit Facility among others o Reducing Agribusiness loan applications Turn Around Time (TAT) to 24 hours decision. o Applying Banking Standards: KYC, Credit files, reporting to Credit Reference Bureau (CRB), among others

12 Agricultural Lending to small farmers KCB Business Model workflow Agriculture financial need assessment Risk assessment and mitigation measures Partnership formation Product development
13 The key is to identify the supply chains & integration with a large number of producers o Agricultural inputs suppliers: work with companies which supply seeds, fertilizers pesticides to farmers: the loan for purchasing these inputs are directly paid to the suppliers o Identifying farmers under cooperatives : based on the level of management, crops, season, infrastructures available, experience
14 The key is to identify the supply chains & integration with a large number of producers o Identifying services providers: Insurance companies, technical support provider, quality assessor, among others o Identifying the buyers of the produce: Specialized buyers at local level (Government, Private Processors, World Food Program among others)

19 Loan approval and monitoring process Loan approval process: Collection of required documents from client (Done by branch) Loan analysis by agribusiness banker and recommendation by branch manager Risk assessment by credit analyst and recommendation for approval Approval of the facility at different level depending on the loan limit
20 Loan approval and monitoring process (Cont.) Post approval process: Legal documentation (offer letter/ loan contract drafting) Security Registration process; Disbursement of the loan by disbursement unit; Monitoring process : Dairy monitoring of loan performance by RM; Monthly reporting on loan portfolio performance; Post disbursement regular visit of the farm/ business;
21 Portfolio Performance Increase of loan portfolio from Rwf 200 M (USD 270,000) to Rwf 1.5 Bn (USD2M) per season for small farmers with target of Rwf 3 Bn (USD4M) per season in 2016; NPL ratio of 1.75% (less than Central Bank of Rwanda NPL ratio recommendation of 5% ) Migration of portfolio to bad debt of 0.01% per season
22 KCB Bank Rwanda success stories o 28,263 smallholder farmers have received loans from KCB under the model in Maize, beans, rice, soybeans, Irish potatoes value chains. o 10 partnerships in place: IFC, AFR, IFDC, RDO, BDF, RWARRI, SPARK RWANDA, CHAI, MINAGRI, UAP Insurance. o 5 Loans products designed: agricultural inputs financing, Inventory credit facility, Contract finance, Invoice discounting and investment loan facility
23 KCB Bank Rwanda success stories o KCBR is the first commercial bank to introduce Inventory credit facility in Rwandan market. o KCBR is the first commercial bank to introduce agricultural insurance on the Rwandan market
24 The Model creates value to all stakeholders o KCBR smallholder farmers loans increased from Rwf 200 M to Rwf 1.5 Bn per season in 2014 (1 USD / 750 Rwf). o The side selling has reduced and farmers are now supplying harvest to cooperatives. o 61 Cooperatives have been linked to the formal markets o Cooperatives started building their own storage facilities due to the increase of sales and profit.
25 The Model creates value to all stakeholders (contd.) o Farmers are assured of access to markets: MINAGRI, WFP, local specialized buyers o Farmers start doing agriculture as business on commercial basis o Farmers gained more knowledge from service providers: Quality of harvest improved, post harvest losses reduced o The financial records are available to the users o Farmers are now insured
26 Summary of key lessons learned Developing new products and services that better meet farmers needs is important: The Bank needs to have specific products targeting agricultural value chain operators as agriculture related businesses have their own specificity Having services and products for agricultural clients is important, but not sufficient to acquire new clients: Adequate training of staff is critical to enable them to sell loan products to agricultural clients effectively Address issues quickly to meet customer expectation (dealing with seasonal business)
27 Summary of key lessons learned Lending to smallholder farmers needs intervention and support from different stakeholders The bank does not enough technical and financial capacity to mitigate all involved risks in smallholders farmers financing and the support from stakeholders as risk mitigation service providers are critical. Bank senior level commitment is key of agricultural finance success Having agricultural lending strategy, policy and budget allocation is key for agricultural lending initiative success; Government intervention and commitment to support agricultural sector is very important Government willing to promote agricultural value chain finance and the investments done in agricultural somehow reduced the risks to lend to the farmers
