The DEG Office in Nairobi is your Partner for Financing and Advisory Services in East Africa and the Horn of Africa. Since 1962, we have been active in the region. From our office in Nairobi, we support our clients and partners in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and Ethiopia. Our experienced team offers comprehensive financing and advisory products from DEG to companies, project developers, financial institutions, and funds, closely guiding them in the implementation of their investment projects.
East Africa is characterized by dynamic growth and significant potential. Key drivers include urbanization, a growing middle class, and increasing investment. Sectors such as consumer goods, financial services, infrastructure, and renewable energy are expanding rapidly. Digital business models and technology trends are also gaining momentum. Kenya is considered one of the leading markets in the region and a frontrunner in the green transformation: around 80–90% of its electricity generation comes from renewable sources, primarily geothermal, hydropower, wind, and solar.
In collaboration with Equity Bank Kenya and the Delegation of German Industry and Commerce (AHK), DEG in Nairobi provides the German Desk for Kenya and neighboring markets. This desk offers tailored financial solutions and advisory services for medium-sized German companies and their local business partners.
In the countries we serve, we work closely with other development financiers to offer our clients comprehensive, large-scale solutions from a single source.
We share the office with the KfW Development Bank, and the German Embassy Nairobi as well as the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) are important partners located nearby.
