China
While China’s economy has experienced tremendous growth in recent years, many microentrepreneurs still do not have access to the financial services they need to build sustainable businesses. In order to respond to this need, in 2009, we launched Accion Microcredit China (AMC) in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia.

Accion Microcredit China (AMC)
Our work in China
Accion was one of the very first foreign organizations to be granted a license to launch microcredit operations in China, and established AMC in 2009 to provide previously underserved regions of Chifeng with access to quality financial services. AMC now provides working-capital and fixed-asset loans for urban and rural, small and medium-sized enterprises in the Chifeng region, Inner Mongolia.
