(A) to alleviate starvation, hunger, and malnutrition;
(B) to expand significantly the provision of basic services to rural poor people to enhance their capacity for self-help; and

TITLE 22—FOREIGN RELATIONS AND INTERCOURSE
§ 2151a
‘‘(10) United States support for microenterprise and
microfinance development programs, which seek to
reduce poverty in low-income countries by giving
small loans to small-scale entrepreneurs without col-
lateral, have been a useful mechanism to help fami-
lies weather economic shocks, but many microcredit
borrowers largely remain in poverty.
‘‘(11) The vast majority of microcredit borrowers
are women who would like to move up the economic
ladder, but are held back by binding constraints that
create a missing middle – large numbers of micro-
enterprises, a handful of large firms or conglom-
erates, and very few small and medium-sized enter-
prises in between, which are critical to driving eco-
nomic growth in developing countries.
‘‘(12) According to the World Bank, small and me-
dium-sized enterprises create 4 out of 5 new positions
in emerging markets, but approximately 50 percent of
formal small and medium-sized enterprises lack ac-
cess to formal credit. The financing gap is even larger
when micro and informal enterprises are taken into
account. Overall, approximately 70 percent of all
micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises in emerg-
ing markets lack access to credit.’’
