AMC is a social enterprise investee of US based social venture capital fund, Acumen Fund, aimed at providing innovative affordable housing solutions to the lower income segment. It is a for-profit, low-cost housing company, which follows the world-renowned Saiban model of development known as Khuda Ki Basti , where there is a strong emphasis on self-reliance. Differentiating itself from Saiban’s NGO model of incremental development, however, AMC focuses on scalability and sustainability through its for-profit, low-cost approach. Established in January 2008, AMC targets households earning PKR 8,000 to 20,000 per month and specializes in community-based approaches.
