IFC to boost skills of SMEs

Based on a survey done last year to identify major constraints to business development, the International Finance Corporation (IFC) has launched programs aimed at boosting skills of 70,000 Small and Medium scale Enterprises (SME’s). According to the IFC Senior Operations Officer, Ignace Bacyaha, the survey which was prepared by On The Frontier (OTF) clearly identified lack of skills as one of the major setbacks for the growth of these enterprises.
