Friday, August 25, 2006 | Category: News

Two key ADFIAP projects – The “DFIs for Corporate Governance” and the “SME Finance Initiative (SME FI)” – which were earlier confined within the ADFIAP website at http://www.adfiap.org, have been separately registered with their own new domain names.

The ADFIAP-CIPE governance project’s new website is now at http://www.governance-asia.com. The site aims to highlight the activities, accomplishments and best practices gained by ADFIAP in corporate governance. The site also features publications such as the ADFIAP Corporate Governance Rating System (ACGRS) and its newsletter, Governance. It also features a photo gallery that includes photos taken during the training events under the project which were held in different venues in the Asia-Pacific region.

The SME FI’s new website, http://www.smefi.com, on the other hand, highlights the activities and programs of the project and its partner-organizations that include ADFIAP, the International Trade Centre UNCTAD/WTO (ITC) and the Association of DFIs in Malaysia (ADFIM) such as the CEO Forum which is on its third year running. The site is envisioned to be the “Knowledge Net on SME Finance that will contain relevant reference materials, training programs and experts on SME financing and a network of international SME finance providers.
