Private Sector & Development #32 - SME finance in Africa: what's new?

Published on

PSD 32

10 years after having dedicated its first issue to the financing and support of SMEs in Africa, this Private Sector & Development magazine takes another in-depth look into this major challenge for the continent's development.

The importance of financing African SMEs is a crucial subject for the sustainable development of the continent. The French President, Emmanuel Macron, has underlined this on several occasions. It is for this reason that Proparco, and AFD Group as a whole, launched the “Choose Africa” initiative in March 2019. This mechanism aims to deploy EUR 2.5bn for SMEs and start-ups in Africa by 2022, via a comprehensive range of complementary financing solutions.
