Kenya-based Fintech Business, 4G Capital, was awarded the coveted “Best Fintech” accolade at the African Banker Awards 2025 in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire.

The company’s innovative micro lending technology has garnered recognition, as it serves over 250,000 small business proprietors in East and West Africa.

4G Capital’s success is contingent upon its data-driven approach to financial inclusion.

The platform, in contrast to traditional banks, utilizes behavioral analytics to evaluate creditworthiness and provides specialized financial literacy courses in addition to loans.

This comprehensive approach has gained the confidence of numerous underprivileged entrepreneurs.

At a time when financial innovation is thriving in Africa and investors are increasingly interested in businesses that promote tangible impact, the honor is bestowed.

4G Capital was distinguished by its ability to expand its business without relying on collateral-based financing, while simultaneously maintaining a loan repayment percentage of over 94%.

Industry observers contend that Africa’s indigenous fintech models, which incorporate technology, education, and empathy, are validated by 4G Capital’s triumph.

The company is currently planning to expand its operations in Francophone West Africa and gradually integrate AI.
