Activity under preparation Support Towards Access to Necessary Micro-finance for MSEs' Inclusive and sustainable growth in Lebanon (EU-TANMIA) 2024 In the face of Lebanon's economic fragility and frequent external shocks, microfinance institutions (MFIs) within the country have encountered substantial challenges in maintaining operational stability and supporting financial inclusion. These challenges have impaired MFIs¿ capacities to serve micro and small enterprises (MSEs) during periods of crisis. To this end, the Action aims to support Lebanon¿s economic recovery through, on the one hand, supporting MSEs¿s access to finance, and on the other hand, by rebuilding MFIs¿ capacity to play their crucial financial intermediation role, especially for youth and women.The proposed Action seeks to support MFIs in Lebanon through phases of crisis recovery and growth. By providing targeted support to MFIs, the initiative not only addresses immediate needs during crises but also lays the groundwork for sustainable growth and development within the financial sector, contributing to the broader objective of economic stability and recovery in Lebanon. The Action recognizes the crucial role of environmental sustainability in building resilient MSEs, and places a strong emphasis on environmental mitigation and sustainability by prioritizing investments in green and circular business models wherever possible, and raising beneficiaries¿ awareness about their carbon footprint and how to reduce it. By promoting green practices and supporting MSEs in adopting environmentally friendly solutions, the Action aims to contribute to Lebanon's sustainable development goals and help MSEs align with global sustainability trends.Limited to non-existent access to finance has severely constrained the capacity of MSEs to sustain, let alone grow their activities in the face of successive crises. The economic downturn has disproportionately impacted women borrowers, exacerbating gender disparities in economic participation. This Action aims at addressing these challenges by enhancing MSEs¿ access to finance to mitigate the disproportionate impact on vulnerable populations and fostering economic recovery in a context of escalating poverty. In addition, the Action will support advocacy with the Lebanese authorities to develop legal frameworks for new digital financial services, and community engagement with non-traditional financial tools and products such as e-wallets through awareness campaigns to promote entrepreneurship, particularly among women and youth. By advocating for reforming the legal framework governing the microfinance sector, the Action will promote the development of secure and compliant digital services thus improving the integration of MSEs, while reducing the risks related to Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism practices.
