Credits Mines Information

Credit's Mines aims at reducing (extreme) poverty and exclusion through economic development and targets strongly disadvantaged areas in Togo underserved by MFIs. Hence it has microfinance operations in urban areas (notably in periurban deprived areas of Lomé) and in rural districts. Credit's Mines supports MFIs and rural communities financially and provides probono expertise (finance, optimization, governance, , social performance etc.) being deeply involved with its partners (most of which were created by Credit's Mines). As of March 2022, more than 6,000 micro-entrepreneurs have been financed thanks to Credit's Mines. It also contributes to the promotion of microfinance (conferences, debates, social afterworks, runraisings, etc.) mainly in Paris, Lyon and Saint-Etienne and offers internships and volonteer experiences to French students and young executives.
