Abdel Kader pointed out that this comes within the framework of cooperation between the Ministry of Finance and the Authority with the MSMEDA to facilitate the owners of medium, small and micro enterprises to register at the tax authority.

Under the agreements, a host of micro-enterprises will be financed in form of loans in the most needy areas targeted by the “Decent Life” initiative in Aswan Governorate.
Gamea said, on the occasion of the Egyptian Women's Day, that the MSMEDA depends on several plans to promote women's role at the economic and societal levels.
He noted that there are 3.7 million small, medium and micro enterprises in Egypt, a matter that reflects the agency's keenness on providing them with financial and non-financial services to enable them to grow and expand.
Emad pointed out that in accordance with the new project development law, the agency will start financing medium-sized projects, up to a maximum of LE 30 million pounds, so that the agency will provide various aspects of financing that help its clients to grow, expand and continue.
Mahmoud Al-Ammari, director of the Qena Branch of the MSMEDA stated that the initiative in Qena targets 5 centers, which are "Dashna, Al-Waqf, Farshout, Qus, and Abu Tshat".
