Islamic Banking opportunities Across small and Medium Enterprises in Africa

Abstract

After a first part dedicated to the presentation of the Islamic financial landscape, through its history, the different products offered and its mode of operation, the present work addresses the financing issues of small and medium enterprises in Africa. Our study focuses more specifically on identifying the financing of small and medium-sized companies in Africa, what contribution can alternative finance play in terms of diversification of funding sources.

The motive of this research is that the reader will find the elements likely to nurture and enrich a very relevant debate in these times of turbulence where the system that made the heyday of the financial world lacks solutions.
