Project to Support Private Sector Development and Investment Attraction in Chad (PADSP-AI)

The Project to Support Private Sector Development and Investment Attraction in Chad (PADSP-AI) aims to improve the Chadian business environment and make the country more attractive to private investors by addressing key constraints: limited institutional capacity for investment promotion, poor preparation of bankable projects, a lack of facilitation tools (databases, one-stop shops), and restricted access to financing for MSMEs. The project combines institutional actions (digitalization, databases, and promotional tools), technical assistance (project preparation, strengthening the investment agency), and targeted financial instruments to catalyze private investment.

Strengthening economic resilience: Improving the private sector's capacity to create jobs and support national growth. Modernizing investment attraction services: Digitization, creation of a project bank, and implementation of promotional tools. Preparing bankable projects: Technical assistance to structure projects attractive to private investors and financial institutions. Facilitating access to finance: Implementing instruments to reduce perceived risks and increase the flow of private capital to MSMEs.
