Access to capital for women entrepreneurs in Madagascar

Female entrepreneurship can be a lever for the development of Madagascar within the framework of the New Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). However, financing remains a major problem, especially for women entrepreneurs with a low level of education, especially in rural areas.

Equity and informal borrowings remain the main source of financing today. Several cultural and socio-economic barriers limit access to alternative sources of financing. For example, much remains to be done for the popularization of microfinance. It is therefore a question of giving them the support necessary for their professional development.
