The purpose of this 3rd global conference is to provide substantial input to the UN Food Systems Summit that is tentatively scheduled for the third quarter of 2021, building on the achievements of the SFS Programme’s membership during the first five years of implementation as well as the outcomes of the Programme’s previous two global conferences.
See the week 1 recording on:
30/11 Side Event Unlocking Finance for Inclusive Agriculture: Aceli Africa SFSP Panel
- Aceli Africa and Dalberg Advisors analyzed data from 31 lenders to assess the economics and low volumes of agri-SME lending
- Agriculture & agri-SMEs are particularly important in East African economies, but the sector remains chronically under-financed
- Annual financing gap of ~$65bn for African agri-SMEs with financing needs of $25k to $1.5m
- Agri-SMEs in this $25k-$1.5m segment are under-financed in part because they fall between two lending business models
- Three lender types target different agri-SME segments and all have room to grow – if the lending economics can be improved
- Data collection is a powerful tool for right-sizing concessional capital when designing blended finance interventions, particularly in nascent markets
- Blended finance practitioners must balance tailoring custom-fit solutions with reducing complexity
- Technical assistance can be useful for addressing both demand- and supply-side constraints
- Blended finance can be used to support the development of local markets
