First Finance Plc is a joint venture company established between Cambodia-based First Home Plc, Singapore-based Phillip Capital, Luxembourg-based Insitor Fund, Cambodia-Laos Development Fund and Norway-based Norfund. The company was granted its license on 23 April 2009 by the National Bank of Cambodia, and became the first financial institution to specialize in housing finance in Cambodia. The company is focused on providing long-term Home Loans and Home Improvement Loans, and medium-term Home Equity Loans to underserved low and middle-income Cambodian households who have little-to-no access to formal housing financial services. Most commercial banks only offer services to wealthier Cambodians.
As the founding company of First Finance, First Home Plc has tested and refined its initial housing finance concept and has conducted studies on the market needs for housing loans. It has thus provided First Finance a foundation for growth and expansion.
