Kiva’s 30% limit on financing relative to the portfolio is dynamic and, therefore, changes, as the portfolio
grows. For new organizations, a simulation can be created in which the current portfolio financed by non-
Kiva sources remains exactly the same and Kiva funding is additional to the portfolio size. This simulative
multiplies the current portfolio size by 3/7 (42%) instead of 3/10 (30%).
