factoring are of high relevance.

Entrepreneurship Fund (EEF) in early 2002 in an effort
to make funding more widely available for
agro-processing and information technology businesses in the country.

refinance banks and other financing institutions that lend to the SME sector
create a capacity to specifically channel needed debt-finance.
Disbursements made by financial institutions and leasing companies into
small-enterprises will be refinanced from the proceeds of the SEF.
