Financing is provided through a performance-based grants competition available to investors in Rural Supply Chains with business propositions in (RHCs). Winners are awarded a performance investment co-financing of up to US$1 million per project which is made available to the investors over a specific period and according to a defined investment plan. The main objective is to support investment in Refugee and Host Districts by encouraging the expansion of existing supply chains or establishment of new supply chains.  

Investment under this financing has large network effects, in terms of volume of supplies from refugee or host suppliers, or the number of refugee or host workers employed. Submissions are assessed using a standardized set of criteria to include level of inclusion of refugee and host community households (particularly the number of females and refugees included), degree of innovation, projected growth and rate of return, job creation potential, feasibility, and practicality to the local context.
