Agriculture

The finance sector has a key role to play in allowing agriculture to contribute to economic growth and poverty reduction. A rapidly evolving technological landscape is opening up new possibilities to target and price credit, share risk, and harness information technology to expand agricultural productivity. At the same time, many obstacles are not technological, so it is important to look for strategic places where policy and investment can help to improve outcomes for agricultural households.

Liberal Financials focus on developing and implementing agriculture finance strategies and instruments to crowd-in private sector, enhancing access to suitable financial services to farmers – particularly smallholders – and agricultural Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) as a way to increase agricultural productivity and income, and facilitating the consolidation/ integration of production and marketing entities in agriculture to achieve economies of scale and stronger presence in markets.
