#DigitalFinancialServices have about a 12% uptake in ET🇪🇹. We recently met with #NationalBankofEthiopia to inform our #CBCdfi4MSME study; with ⬆️45M mobile subscribers in the country, we're excited about the developing #DFS awareness campaigns+the opportunities for collaboration!

#PurePurple_Ke was one of our exhibitors at #COMESASource21 International Trade Fair last July, and we cannot get enough of their genuine leather products! Tell a friend to #supportlocal #localsourcing #source21 #CBCsource21

Despite their critical role in the region's #economicdevelopment, #SMEs still face a multitude of challenges relating to legal frameworks, business infrastructure, credit lines & more. Is access to finance the biggest constraint to SME growth regionally?
