Description
A report based on desk research and telephone discussions
This study is based on desk research, a survey questionnaire completed by 22 GIZ programmes, and telephone interviews with a number of these programmes. Several limitations were encountered: the survey design, which centered on multiple-choice questions, only contained a few open questions and thus did not allow for the collection of much detail; the timing of the survey; and the limited amount of information gathered for the case studies from discussions, which were held with GIZ staff only.
Chapter 3 provides an overview of the characteristics of the GIZ programmes surveyed and their involvement in agricultural finance
Also, some background on the contexts of the agricultural and financial sectors in which these programmes are active is provided. It also summarizes findings from the survey and draws some initial conclusions.
