Objective

The objective of the Foundation is to encourage banks and non-bank financial institutions (NBFIs) to provide financial services to micro, small and medium enterprises in various economic sectors of the economy including agriculture, agro-allied and rural businesses on a sustainable basis to enable them to create new jobs, grow and become more competitive.

To achieve this objective, ADGF partners with financial institutions and provides partial credit guarantees covering the credit risk associated with underlying, newly extended bank loans to:

  • Micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the agro-sector specifically and rural areas in general, and MSMEs in other sectors of the economy.
  • NBFIs for on-lending to MSMEs in the agro-sector specifically and rural areas in general.
