The brief examines experimental and quasi-experimental evidence around farmers’ and small and medium-sized enterprises’ (SMEs) access to finance, the economic impacts of accessing financial services on investments, and the constraints of accessing finance in lower-middle-income countries (LMICs). The evidence presented can help policymakers enhance investment and agricultural productivity by providing them with insights into agricultural finance and credit, risk, and savings interventions.
