Tamweely is one of the leading companies in Egypt in financing medium, small, and micro enterprises. It was founded in 2017 with the vision of providing flexible financial solutions to underserved segments by traditional banks, especially micro-entrepreneurs, thereby contributing to their integration into the formal financial system and enhancing financial inclusion.
Since its inception, Tamweely has played an influential role in supporting the local economy by offering innovative financial products tailored to the needs of entrepreneurs. It has helped empower thousands of families and achieve greater economic and social stability in local communities. The company’s operations expanded rapidly to cover more than 230 branches across 24 governorates with around 4,000 employees.
The total financing provided by Tamweely since its establishment has exceeded 24.9 billion EGP, benefiting nearly 750,000 clients from various segments. This reflects the company’s significant impact in facilitating financial inclusion and advancing sustainable business ventures. The company also places special emphasis on women’s empowerment, with women representing about 51% of total beneficiaries.
Tamweely witnessed a major development in its ownership structure after a group of international investors acquired 100% of its shares in a deal exceeding 2.5 billion EGP. Among the investors were the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), British International Investment, SPE Capital, and Tanmiya Capital Ventures. This transaction reflects international institutions’ confidence in the strength of Tamweely’s business model and its future growth prospects, aligning with the state’s direction to enhance the role of the private sector.
Tamweely is distinguished by its commitment to the highest standards of governance and compliance. In 2025, it obtained the AML 30000 certification for anti-money laundering and the MSI 20000 certification for financial governance from the French organization COFICERT, in addition to ISO 9001 for quality management and ISO 27001 for information security. It also achieved the Gold Level in customer protection certification, affirming its commitment to ethical standards and safeguarding customer interests.
In 2025, the company increased its paid-up capital from EGP 150 million to 225 million EGP to support its expansion plans. It also adopted an advanced digital transformation strategy through a mobile application, chatbot services, electronic signature solutions, and e-KYC, making access to financing easier and enhancing operational efficiency.
Tamweely places sustainability at the core of its business. It partnered with DeCarbon to strengthen ESG practices and launched three green branches powered by solar energy in Minya, Fayoum, and Suez, alongside offering green financing products. In doing so, Tamweely continues to consolidate its position as a pioneering institution that combines financial growth with sustainable social and environmental impact.
