Only well-known and significant operators can get credit in Madagascar. The credit granted is mainly for the purchase of traditional agricultural products such as vanilla, coffee, and cloves. In case of pre-financing by foreign importers, local exporters still have to pay high interest rates to their banks. Generally speaking, the financing possibilities that are available to local firms are quite limited. Prepared by our U.S. Embassies abroad.
