Access to finance for SMEs
European Commission, ENEST: Team Leader – Private Sector Development & Green Agenda Western Balkans at European Commission, DG GROW
Brussels, Belgium
About
I can present EU funded programmes supporting MSMEs in the Western Balkans under the WBIF. Via our international finance institution partners, we provide de-risking instruments to local commercial banks and technical assistance to various stakeholders in view of facilitating access to finance.
I would also be interested to receive feedback from banks and companies on their experience with EU supported programmes & their views on obstacles to access to finance in the region.
