Project Description

This project aims to strengthen the SME operations of a leading Cameroonian bank, and potentially those of other subsidiaries of the Afriland First Bank Group in Africa. By supporting the bank to review its market segmentation and SME product offering, IFC expects to increase the access to financial services of SMEs in Cameroon, who constitute a key driver for jobs and private sector growth.
