The work of the FMFB would not be possible without the long-term commitment and confidence of our partner organisations. Our partners play several roles within the operations of the Bank. While some are direct equity holders in the Bank, others provide loans or grants for technical assistance and capacity building.

The Aga Khan Agency for Microfinance (AKAM) is a not-for-profit international development agency, established in 2005. Since its establishment, the agency has taken over all microfinance activities, programmes and banks that were previously administered by sister agencies within the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN). The underlying objectives of the Agency are to reduce poverty, diminish the vulnerability of poor populations and alleviate economic and social exclusion. In 2005, AKAM took over the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development's (AKFED) shares in the FMFB to become its majority shareholder.

The Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) is a non-denominational, international development agency established in 1967 by His Highness the Aga Khan. Its mission is to develop and promote creative solutions to problems that impede social development, primarily in Asia and East Africa. It is a modern vehicle for traditional philanthropy in the Ismaili Muslim community under the leadership of the Aga Khan. AKF is a primary shareholder in FMFB-T and the parent agency of the Mountain Societies Development Support Programme (MSDSP), one of the two microfinance institutions from which FMFB-T evolved, the other being the Enterprise Support Facility of AKFED. The Bank benefits from a close working relationship with AKF and its long-standing presence and expertise in Tajikistan.

International Finance Corporation (IFC) is an international organisation that promotes sustainable private sector investment in developing countries as a way to reduce poverty and improve people's lives.

Established in 1956, IFC is the largest multilateral source of loan and equity financing for private sector projects in the developing world. The entry of IFC as a shareholder in each of the FMFBs has been instrumental in allowing the Banks to expand their operations by bolstering their capital base.
