Difficulties encountered by disabled entrepreneurs - Supporting the entrepreneurship of people with disabilities

Most people with disabilities… Prefer not to apply for microcredit, even if it is available locally Are able to adapt and learn quickly Are risk-averse, afraid to lose what they have Consider a loan as a last resort Do not know how to approach an MFI Have had unhappy experiences in approaching offices Mersland - 2005

Most people with disabilities… Are misinformed about MFIs and existing MF products May wait for specific programmes Who were denied access to a loan believe it is because of their impairment (even if the real reason is business capacity) May have higher operational costs in their activity Mersland - 2005
