Value-Add L.L.C. partnered with Chemonics International on the Nigeria PRISMS project. During the Phase I assessment, Value-Add, L.L.C. served as lead consultant for examining factors affecting the supply of finance for lending in the formal, semiformal and informal banking sectors, as well as increasing access for microfinance institutions and SMEs to capital markets.
Value-Add developed baseline data for performance analysis and institutional assessment of NGOs, community banks,
credit union- type organizations, cooperative undertakings, government finance institutions
and informal lenders. Value-Add developed recommendations and a plan of action for:
- aligning business streams toward servicing selected geographic clusters of economic activities.
- building capacity to allow best practice providers to obtain a stronger understanding of value and demand.
- managing cost to market and business risk.
Value-Add also provided recommendations regarding strengthening the policy environment to support the targeted PRISM partners in realigning their organizational leadership and priorities in order to manage business operations, outreach and customer service delivery.
