Anticipate low returns
I have invested in 26 companies on the platform since 2017. Investments have been written down or remain in arrears for 9, and recovery rates have been at the lower end of estimates with updates typically communicating downgrades or extensions. My overall return is slightly negative. I was reluctant to commit significant sums at the outset and spread my investments across companies and feel that approach was sensible as investments on the platform are essentially philanthropic: the interest rates offered would have needed to be at least 5% higher to have adequately compensated risks on the basis of my experience, at least.

Dear Jim,
Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We appreciate all feedback, as it helps us reflect and improve how we support our investor community.
We're sorry to hear that your overall return has been disappointing, and we’d like to address some of the concerns you’ve raised.
Investing in early-stage businesses, particularly those operating in developing markets, does carry risks. We are transparent about this from the outset, and we always recommend spreading investments across a portfolio to help mitigate those risks. And we’re pleased to hear you took a diversified approach.
While some investments have unfortunately resulted in losses or delays, we’re proud that to date, over £27 million in capital and interest has been repaid to investors via the platform.
Our due diligence process is thorough, with every investment opportunity individually assessed by our team, reviewed by a credit committee, and subject to regulatory oversight to ensure all promotions are fair, clear and not misleading. Even so, unexpected global and local challenges, such as the pandemic, inflation, and currency fluctuations, have impacted some issuers and the communities they serve.
When issues do arise, we work hard to engage with the businesses involved, including negotiating with administrators where necessary, and we update investors whenever meaningful information is available. These situations can take time, but please rest assured that recovery efforts remain a priority for us.
It’s also important to clarify that Energise Africa is not a philanthropic platform. Our mission is to offer investors the opportunity to earn a reasonable financial return while supporting businesses that are addressing major global challenges like energy poverty and climate change.
Offering significantly higher interest rates, as you suggest, would undermine our ability to provide affordable finance to these impactful enterprises.
We do believe that even when repayments are delayed or lost, the social and environmental outcomes of these investments remain valuable. Thanks to our investors, over 750,000 people now have access to clean electricity, and more than 736,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions have been avoided.
Looking ahead, we are also launching more investment opportunities that are backed by Results-Based Finance agreements, designed to help reduce risk and improve investor confidence, while still delivering direct positive impact.
We’d be happy to discuss your experience further—please feel free to contact us at help@energiseafrica.com if you’d like to talk more.
Thank you once again for your feedback and for being part of the Energise Africa community.
Yours,
The Energise Africa Team

Easy to invest in making a difference
It's good to invest in projects that really make a difference. The projects are clearly explained and the website is easy to use. I've invested in over twenty projects over the years. Out of these, one project hasn't met the repayment schedule - it remains to be seen whether it will make the final payment or not, but that's the risk you take with an IFISA. If I lose money, I'm happy to know that it will still likely have improved people's lives.

Who made this website? It's lit, Bro!!!
I love investing with energised Africa, it's so easy, and although I hate capitalism and colonialism (inc. neocolonialism, obvs), it is good to know that these investments are actually useful to real people, and until the revolution that supplants, it with a more equitable system, this is probably the least unethical thing you can do with surplus income except simple charity.

I invested in Energise Africa as I used to live in Kenya whilst my father worked there.I felt that I wanted to help Africa in general and these investments allow the ordinary people to do better.A win, win situation.
Dividend / interest is paid on time and I have been able to reinvest.The length of investment also suits me.

Energise Africa is easy to use and reliable. Although it is a very risky investment, it is profitable and doing good in the world, especially in Africa where investment is so desperately needed. I would never invest more than I could afford to lose.
