Tropenbos Suriname has produced the report "Assessment Financial Services 'Upper Suriname’” in the context of the Working Landscapes Programme. With the report written by consultant Leeroy Jack, Tropenbos Suriname discusses the research results with relevant stakeholders.
The report is based on research results that show that agro producers face many obstacles in accessing financing for necessary investments.
The report also explores the availability of financial services of banks and funding agencies for local producers in the Upper Suriname River area based on the Draft Suriname Forest Financing Strategy.
The conclusions and recommendations can serve as a basis for the development of financial products that meet the needs of agro-cooperatives and individual producers in the Upper Suriname River area.
