Sector Programme Microfinance III

completed

The FC measure addresses a major bottleneck for the economic development of the DRC: the blatant undersupply of financial services for Congolese MSMEs. The FC measure envisages further developing the FPM and expanding the lending of these financial institutions to MSMEs by providing long-term debt capital to local financial institutions. At the same time, in intensive dialogue between the FPM and the financial institutions, strategies are being developed to broaden their MSME product segment, deepen the customer segment and expand their activities to underserved provinces.
