About Monaire Financial Services

A Legacy of Service, A Vision for the Future

Our History

Monaire Financial Services (MFS) is a microfinance institution that was established in 2006 and operated in Western Jamaica for several years before it was acquired by Spectrum Capital (St Lucia) Holdings Limited in 2021.

Having recently received approval from the Bank of Jamaica, MFS is being repositioned for island‑wide expansion and relaunch as a modern, digitally enabled microfinance institution operating under the Bank of Jamaica (BOJ) regulatory framework.

Our Mission

As a mission-driven institution, MFS is dedicated to empowering individuals and small business owners with limited access to traditional banking.

The company is committed to performing its role in fostering economic growth, supporting community development, and providing responsible financial solutions that create opportunities for its clientele.
