Under the Progress Microfinance, EIF has so far signed agreements with the microfinance providers listed below. These institutions act as EIF's intermediaries and provide micro-credit (loans below EUR 25.000) to (future) entrepreneurs and micro-enterprises with fewer than 10 persons and whose annual turnover and/or annual balance sheet total does not exceed EUR 2 million.

By clicking on the microfinance provider in your country, you will be redirected to its website.
