Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise Financial and Non Financial Services

Applying the Power of Finance to Sustainably Solve Social and Environmental Problems

Financial Services for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise

ES Global helps financial institutions bring the power of finance to address the needs of lower income people and small business the world round. Our services help financial institutions not only achieve strong business performance results but excellent development impacts as well.

We have helped rural banks in Africa develop efficient low income savings and loans services. In Ecuador, we provided strategy and market expansion advice to a growing microfinance institution, while in Rwanda we helped design a national small business finance program.  We evaluated an $850M rural financial institution investment portfolio for the International Fund for Agricultural Development and in Haiti we provided technical assistance to a leading financial institution for low income people. In Indonesia, we worked to improve small business lending activities and in Cambodia we assessed an institutional investor’s impact on two microfinance institutions.

Through the management of multi-year microfinance sector development programs in Sierra Leone and the Democratic Republic of Congo, we have worked with regulators to ensure sound regulatory and supervisory regimes, worked to develop sector associations, improved links to appropriate IT suppliers and supported the capacity building of dozens of MFIs serving over 600,000 low income people.
