Credit guarantees are turning "too risky to lend" into "open for business" for 400 #MSMEs in #Sudan and counting. This is what structured #PrivateSector engagement looks like in practice and the model @IICPSD is scaling through Sudan's PS Engagement Strategy. #BlendedFinance
Access to finance is key to reviving #Sudan’s economy.
The Sudan Credit Guarantee System is helping restore the economy by supporting the private sector-the engine of growth. In a unique initiative, @UNDPSudan and @bank_ebdaa (a subsidiary of AGFUND) are building enterprises from capacity to capital.
Already, 400 MSMEs are benefiting from digital and financial literacy, along with access to subsidized loans backed by credit guarantees that de-risk financing.
