Project Context and Description

In order to develop the microfinance sector in Tunisia, a new law was adopted in 2011. Thus, a mesofinance bank found itself faced with a decision to be taken regarding the creation of a company for the development of the microfinance business under this new law.

To this end, AMEF Consulting was asked to conduct an opportunity study to create a microfinance institution, by developing its business plan.

  • Defining the governance and organization of the Microfinance Institution (MFI) to create and sizing its teams
  • Development of the MFI’s financial business plan to be created
