ESCAP’s MSME Financing Series

To better understand the challenges of MSMEs to access finance and the key mechanisms and strategies that can help them, ESCAP developed A Framework for Country Studies on MSME Access to Finance in Asia and the Pacific and prepared a series of detailed national studies based on it. So far, studies have been prepared for Cambodia, Nepal, Samoa and Bangladesh. The studies were prepared by independent experts engaged by ESCAP and guided by advisory committees composed of representatives from government departments and agencies, as well as private sector organizations and financial institutions, involved in MSME promotion and financing.
