Evaluation criteria & rating scale

Description

In the course of this project, a EUR 50 million line of credit was provided to three partner banks to support micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs). These financial sector promotion efforts fall under the category of "economic and employment promotion", addressing the lack of capital resources for Tunisian MSMEs – one of the key problems for the Tunisian economy, which stems in part from deficiencies in the Tunisian financial sector.
