(i) |
Develop
and strengthen, the capacity of local intermediaries to
deliver financial and non-financial services to MSMEs;
|
|
(ii) |
Reduce
selected investment climate barriers that constrain MSME
performance; |
|
(iii) |
Mobilize, via (i) and (ii), increased private
investments in MSMEs and intermediaries. |
The project will be implemented on a
pilot basis primarily in three States- Lagos, Kaduna and Abia. There
are representative officers in each of these states and a head
office in Abuja. see contact details.
