ENHANCING THE PRIVATE SECTOR ROLE AND PARTICIPATION IN KEY STRATEGIC SECTORS IN AFRICA
When regionally assessed, East
Africa scores the lowest in terms of judicial independence, while North Africa scores the
highest.
(...) In terms of the business environment, one of the most important concerns of firms in
Africa is access to credit. The main challenge in terms of getting credit is the high demand
for collateral as a share of credit provided. (...) On the other hand, access to
credit is positively affected by accessibility of credit information available through public
and private credit registries.

(...) When
focusing narrowly on female majority firms,
Djibouti (10 per cent), followed by Lebanon and

supports entrepreneurs.
