How to Power Rapid Approvals and Improve your SME Lending Strategy
In Africa, SMEs provide approximately 80% of jobs, representing a critical driver for the economy in the region. But 51% of these businesses require more funding than they have access to, and 28% of SMEs in the region are fully credit constrained (source). Waiting months or even weeks for credit approval and funding can mean the difference between innovation and business closure.
Traditional financial services organizations may find lending to SMEs difficult, but fintechs, challenger banks, and digital banks are rising to the challenge. Simplified application processes, rapid approvals, and improved accessibility to funds makes working with digital lenders an obviously attractive choice.
Because if you aren’t making it easy for SMEs to get the credit they need, your competitors will.
