THE KEYS TO A NEW HOME OPEN A NEW ERA.

- citi.com/progressma­kers

Twenty years after the end of apartheid, the path to wealth through property ownership is still closed to many South Africans. Internatio­nal Housing Solutions, a global private equity firm, is determined to change that. Their idea: a fund to build safe, affordable housing for rising middle class families. Citi’s early support and expertise has helped the fund grow to finance 27,000 housing units across South Africa. Its success is being used as a model throughout the continent. For over 200 years, Citi’s job has been to believe in people and help make their ideas a reality.
