This World Bank project aims to expand sustainable access to finance and improve the investment climate in Liberia, creating direct opportunities for SMEs to access credit through participating financial institutions. Liberian business owners can apply for loans and financing products offered by banks and non-bank financial institutions strengthened under this project. The project also works to reduce trade barriers and improve business registration processes, making it easier and cheaper for SMEs to formalize, grow, and access markets.
SMEs can apply for loans and financing through participating banks and financial institutions. Businesses should inquire with commercial banks about new or expanded SME lending products. The project also simplifies business registration and trade procedures—register your business or apply for trade licenses through improved government systems. Monitor announcements from the Ministry of Commerce and the Central Bank of Liberia for participating lenders.
