Middle East & North Africa

Frankfurt School has been working in the Middle East and North Africa for more than 15 years and was one of the first advisory companies to support financial sector development in the MENA states. We are working closely with local banks and microfinance institutions to create, expand and enhance their outreach to the market of MSMEs. We also work with vulnerable groups

such as women, youth and refugees through tailored Technical Assistance (TA) programmes. In particular, we leverage our presence in Dubai to organize bank trainings in all areas of HR management and development. Other areas in our portfolio include comprehensive risk management solutions, as well as the promotion of affordable and clean energy through climate financing mechanisms.
