|Working with the Government of Nepal’s Koshi Province (GoKP), the project Udaya – Investment and Innovation for Economic Development seeks to enhance the framework conditions for SMEs in Koshi Province. The project is funded by the Government of Switzerland through SDC and Government of Nepal and implemented by DAI Global UK. Udaya directly supports enterprises’ access to pertinent business development services (BDS) in areas such as business and financial management, accounting, or marketing, and to provide interested SMEs with vouchers to avail of loan application. Further, as existing service offered by BDS providers and banks in Koshi Province are not geared towards SMEs, the project will support the GoKP in establishing a technical assistance facility for improving BDS offers and strengthening SME-lending. Similarly, as banks are reluctant to lend to SMEs (owing to the allegedly high probability of loan default), the project will support the GoKP in establishing a risk-reduction mechanism for selected banks and financial institutions, possibly in the form of a guarantee fund. Finally, the project will support the GoKP in establishing an easy-to-use and interactive digital information portal, which will act as a repository of all business-relevant information for SMEs.
DURATION
Udaya is planned in three phases for an overall period of 10 years. Currently, DAI is in the first phase of Udaya from 1 st December 2023 to 30 th November 2026. The Communications Officer is initially required for a total of 8 days a month from August 2026 to November 2026 with the possibility of extension as the programme progresses.
