Bridge-In Agriculture Training Program for Banks for CrossBoundary Advisory
JPCann Associates Ltd was contracted by CrossBoundary Advisory, a Lead implementer of the BRIDGE-in Agriculture program in Ghana and funded by the Mastercard Foundation to design and deliver training for three financial institutions, Access Bank, Fidelity Bank and First National Bank Ghana on Lending to Youth and Women.
The Building Resilience and Investing in the Development and Growth of Entrepreneurs in Agriculture (” BRIDGE-in Agriculture” or “BIA”) is a 5-year Mastercard Foundation initiative that aims to make affordable capital and technical support available for SMEs in agriculture and related sectors in Ghana. The program also equips young people and women with skills through training for dignified and fulfilling work.
To ease the financial burden on the youth, BRIDGE-in Agriculture is working with commercial banks to lend to agribusinesses at single-digit interest rates. This helps them expand operations and create new jobs, which leads to poverty reduction among the youth and women in Ghana.
This training was designed to equip financial institutions with the knowledge and skills necessary to lend effectively to youth and women. The course provided participants with a comprehensive understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities associated with lending to these target groups. Participants learnt practical strategies and best practices to enhance their lending processes and increase financial inclusion in underserved communities.
