The Problem

90% of SMEs die within one year of operation. 50% of those that survive, still die by the third year. The above is as a result of limited access to funding
and lack of skills plus motivation to run and grow
businessses. Money lenders charge interest as high as 360% if annualized
Stringent requirements by banks which make it impossible
for entrepreneurs to acquire credit.
