Summary of Thinkathon - SME Funding
SMEs have been disproportionately impacted by the Pandemic through :
Loss of jobs leading to increased household insecurity and the poor most likely to be worst affected.
Agricultural producers are unable to sell produce in local markets due to transport restrictions and travel limitations.
Trade restrictions on SMEs will impact their ability to service existing loans.
Reduced domestic consumption for products and services due to broader economic downturn.

Kickstarting economies will require a vibrant and growing SME sector, yet many countries are struggling to get funding to SMEs, and current funding models don’t work. What are payments infrastructures that would work for SMEs? How has COVID accelerated the development of alternative payment and fundraising alternatives for SMEs? What government policies are needed to support SMEs? How can governments and others create incentives for people to develop new paradigms, or even just better ways to do things, and avoid stamping out good ideas?
