A framework agreement was signed between the French government, the French public financial company Caisse des Dépôts et des Consignations and Caisses d’Epargne for 2018-2020. That agreement aims to implement a national action plan to promote women entrepreneurship.
The Caisses d’Epargne are now the leading provider of personal microloans and among the leaders in professional microloans. They are the only banks that offer support services adapted to the needs of microloan borrowers.
The Caisses d’Epargne have published several surveys on the profiles and requirements of women entrepreneurs since 2012. This year, a new qualitative survey was carried out from a behavioral economy viewpoint in order to identify the obstacles that discourage women from starting a business. The Caisses d’Epargne also organised the fifth national women entrepreneurs’ day at the microbusiness trade show on 5 October 2016.
