Financial Sector

Private enterprise in developing and transition countries calls for an efficient financial sector. This is why the development of that key economic sector plays a special role in DEG's partner countries.

We aim to support establishing a functioning diversified financial sector. Therefore we work on the setting up and institutional strengthening of private finance institutions. We improve access to long-term lending for local private enterprises, also in national currencies. Above all, small and medium-sized enterprises should have the chance to avail themselves of financial services. We also try to ensure that investment capital is available to set up or extend an enterprise in underdeveloped regions.

DEG priorities in the financial sector are financing banks, leasing companies and private equity funds. In addition, we impart finance know-how, which benefits our partner institutions but also all those that contribute to growth in the regions.
