The Microfinance Investment and Technical Assistance Facility (MITAF) seeks to meet the overarching goal of contributing to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals, specifically the goal of cutting absolute poverty in half by 2015. MITAF will contribute to this goal in Sierra Leone by developing a competitive, sustainable and inclusive financial sector that provides access to financial services to poor and low-income people in general, and to micro and small businesses in particular.
MITAF has four key objectives: Expand outreach to 100,000 microfinance clients by 2009.
Build strategic partnerships with donors and investors to enable MFIs access to at least $12 million in capital by 2009.
Support the Bank of Sierra Leone to develop a professional Microfinance Unit.
Disseminate best practices throughout the Sierra Leonean microfinance sector. Hide
