Support for the development of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in Burundi will be achieved through greater, more secure and less costly access to credit, made possible by the strengthening of credit infrastructures and the introduction of new bank guarantee instruments and digital financial services.
WASHINGTON, December 1, 2023 — A new World Bank-financed project aims to facilitate access to financing for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises and improve Burundi’s business climate in order to boost economic growth and job creation.
“ The private sector is the engine of economic growth in Burundi, and this project will address some of the challenges it faces.
The Burundi Jobs and Economic Transformation Project (JET) has been designed to meet the urgent needs of the country’s private sector. It will primarily target beneficiaries in the private sector and public institutions contributing to its development.
In 2020, the UN estimated that 64 percent of the Burundi population was under the age of 24. Equipping Burundi’s burgeoning youth population with the requisite skills and tools to pursue new job opportunities and thrive in tomorrow’s increasingly digital economy will therefore be key to supporting shared prosperity.
Support to Burundian institutions is important to create favorable conditions for the development of the private sector so that it can foster job creation and economic transformation,” notes Hawa Wagué, World Bank Country Manager for Burundi.
