Private sector investment plays a crucial role in the long term socio-economic development of developing economies. The private sector creates jobs, provides incomes to families or communities, stimulates a demand for better education and health care, accelerates technological innovation and broadens a country’s tax-base.
In turn this will attract investment in advanced infrastructure - which is the beginning of an upward development cycle that achieves significantly higher sustainable growth rates.
The problem is Access to Finance which remains one of the most important obstacles towards realizing investment initiatives. In many countries where we work, the financial sector is improving rapidly in terms of professionalism and efficiency. However, the SME segment is invariably viewed as high risk and carrying high servicing costs. Banks are hesitant to commit resources, and access to [affordable] finance remains a huge obstacle for budding entrepreneurs.
n ciuda opiniei publice, Lorem Ipsum nu e un simplu text fără sens. El îşi are rădăcinile într-o bucată a literaturii clasice latine din anul 45 î.e.n., făcând-o să aibă mai bine de 2000 ani. Profesorul universitar de latină de la colegiul Hampden-Sydney din Virginia, Richard McClintock, a căutat în bibliografie unul din cele mai rar folosite cuvinte latine "consectetur", întâlnit în pasajul Lorem Ipsum, şi căutând citate ale cuvântului respectiv în literatura clasică, a descoperit la modul cel mai sigur sursa provenienţei textului. Lorem Ipsum provine din secţiunile 1.10.32 şi 1.10.33 din "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (Extremele Binelui şi ale Răului) de Cicerone, scrisă în anul 45 î.e.n. Această carte este un tratat în teoria eticii care a fost foarte popular în perioada Renasterii. Primul rând din Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...", a fost luat dintr-un rând din secţiunea 1.10.32.
