Pan-African housing development financier Shelter Afrique has restructured loans granted to seven Kenyan home developers worth Sh3.1 billion, exposing it to a cash flow loss of Sh85 million.

Managing director Andrew Chimphondah said the board resolved to defer repayments until January 2021 to cushion the developers from the adverse impact of Covid-19 that has disrupted construction and slowed down economic activities.
