Project to improve and expand a system of integrated financial and technical assistance to small and medium industries in the Northeast of Brazil. The program will provide medium- and long-term loans to local entrepreneurs for the modernization, expansion, and working capital requirements of existing small and medium industry and for the establishment of new firms. Money will be loaned to entrepreneurs by the Banco do Noreste do Brasil (BNB), using state development banks (SDB's) as intermediaries. TA will be provided by the Centers for Industrial Assistance (NAI) and by BNB. NAI assistance to entrepreneurs is expected to include preparation of diagnostic and feasibility studies for BNB loan applications; dissemination of information on fiscal incentives and tax exemptions; direct technical consulting; and short courses and seminars on specific subjects and business management in general. BNB activities will include training of SDB officials, studies of the small and medium industry sector in the Northeast, and a review of the current loan application process.
