Project description and objectives:
|
The proposed project will provide reliable access to financial services for
micro and small enterprises which will give direct support to the development
of the private sector.
|
Transition impact:
|
The transition impact is expected to be significant as ProCredit provides
continuous support to micro and small enterprises that would otherwise have
little or no access to formal sector finance. The finance company will also
support the development of the Moldovan financial sector by operating as a
best practice institution committed to the principles of complete transparency
and strong corporate governance.
