With EURIZ, facilitating access to credit for SMEs in Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific

Small and medium-sized enterprises play a key role in economic growth and job creation. They need financial resources to develop their activity, but their access to financing remains limited, often because banks consider them as risky clients. To facilitate their access to credit and thereby promote their development, AFD Group has launched the EURIZ guarantee scheme, with financial support from the EU and Organization of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OACPS).
