  34. Funds and JVs • Given the restricted funds at Khula’s disposal; and the fact that funds have a time lag before returns are realised; Khula will limit the establishment of new funds in the period under review. • New funds that will be established in this period must meet the following criteria: • The applicant must have a proven track record and be able to deliver scale development impact. • Khula’s investment should have the potential to yield good financial returns to encourage cross-subsidisation (ie financial returns from profitable investments will be used to support projects that have scale development impact). • The applicant institution (ie management expertise, systems, prudent policies and processes) must manifest appropriate capacity. • Funds will be considered only for niche markets and sector-specific projects • The applicant must be able to co-invest with Khula. • Khula will act as an implementing agency for SME development funds – thus diversifying its income 34
