BCFS Group Limited is a financial services company providing financing, advisory and insurance agency services to small and medium businesses (SMEs) in Kenya and the wider East Africa region. SMEs are some of the fastest growing companies and key to economic transformation in Kenya and Africa at large. These SMEs face challenges everyday with limited access to capital that they require to optimize capacity, grow and expand. In addition, many SMEs struggle with short term liquidity and cash flow management which is critical to their day-to-day operations and ultimate success.

It is on this basis that BridgeCap was established to provide our clients with a sustainable relationship based bridge to success.

We offer solutions that help our clients with two key business drivers that maximize value: Optimal Capacity and Sustainable Growth.

We target SMEs at the impact stage of funding cycle and require small cap private equity and/or cash flow finance. The enterprises will typically be looking to grow and expand their operations in 3-5 years and our hands-on financial capacity building solutions are meant leap-frog them to scaling their businesses – we believe this will have follow-on investment opportunities.

With the right funding, such enterprises can grow into organizations that have broad impact and, eventually, become the type of sustainable business that would attract its own outside investors.

Helping our clients maximize value through optimizing capacity and creating sustainable growth by providing capital and practical operational support.

By doing this, we help our clients grow their business and create employment.

1. Professionalism

2. Collaboration

We are in the business of helping clients find solutions to their business challenges and no tool is more powerful in achieving this other than Collaboration. We are continuously forming internal and external connections that we collaborate with to help our clients grow their business to new levels. We believe Collaboration is the fuel of any business, a driving force for continued efficiency and a necessity for improving the outcomes. At BCFS Group, we are continuously finding the right external partners to collaborate with.

Providing our stakeholders with quick, accurate and reliable information is an area that BCFS Group seeks to differentiate itself from the rest in a market where quality of service and speed at which information is relayed are a challenge to many.

6. Value Creation

Value Creation is at the centre of BCFS Group’s mission of helping our clients maximize value through optimizing capacity and creating sustainable growth. This Value, therefore, is the synergy that is a result of sum total of the 5 values above.
