Invest with CBA
Better Faith-Driven Investment
Do you manage a foundation with Kingdom goals?
Or do you have a Donor-Advised Fund to work with?
At CBA, we have a local presence and a team of international business angels to identify and manage investment opportunities in developing countries with LESS RISK.
Not only that, but we work in partnership with our partner organizations to disciple entrepreneurs, developing business leaders that glorify God in all they do.
Joint Investment Objectives
Most fund managers seek investment targets with dual investment targets:
a healthy financial return
that also
helps build God's Kingdom
At CBA, our objective for business investments can be summarized as those which:
create new employment sustained by healthy profits
We encourage our funding partners to consider the following questions:
of the 2 objectives listed above, which is primary?
At CBA, we believe KINGDOM OBJECTIVES take priority, but that in pursuing these we can find those opportunities that also provide positive return.
We are FAITH-DRIVEN INVESTORS who plan our strategies, do our due diligence, bathe these investments in prayer and then come alongside the entrepreneurs in FAITH to create both new employment and a positive return.

Investment Details
At CBA, we invest both in the business startups via our INCUBATOR PROGRAM and in SME enterprises via our ACCELERATOR PROGRAM.
INCUBATOR investments are loans to the post-microfinance entrepreneur, typically $2000 in size. We handle these investments with existing CBA funds.
ACCELERATOR investments are typically equity investments in the range of $10-50k in smaller SME's with a track record, seeking to expand both their employment and revenues.
We welcome partnership with foundation or fund managers on a per-investment or grouped investment basis, typically co-investing for joint return. Contact us for details.
