Sidian Bank was founded in 1984 as K-Rep Bank, by Kimanthi Mutua who was then the Managing Director of Kenya Rural Enterprise Program (K-Rep). K-Rep was founded in 1984, by Fred O’Regan under the World Education Inc, with funding from USAID. Its objective then was to develop small-scale businesses in the informal sector. In the beginning, the organization provided grants and technical assistance to non-governmental organizations (NGO). The NGOs then made loans to micro-enterprises. In 1989, K-Rep changed its strategy to lending to NGOs. The technical assistance that had been provided for free now attracted a fee. Kimanthi Mutua, became the Managing Director in 1989 taking over from Dr. Yoder, who succeeded O’Regan in 1997.
In 1999, K-Rep re-organized itself into four entities:
- K-Rep Group – This is the parent company. It owns, either wholly or partially, the other three subsidiaries.
- K-Rep Development Agency – This agency carries out research and developmental assistance work for the group
- K-Rep Advisory Services – This company provides consultancy services for a fee.
In 2015, Centum Investment Company completed its acquisition of a majority stake in the bank. On 4 April 2016, K-Rep Bank re-branded as Sidian Bank, to reflect the majority shareholding by Centum Investments Limited.
