A leading Palestinian entrepreneur on Tuesday announced the launch of a $60 million private equity fund to support small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), the first in the West Bank.
"Palestine's private sector is thirsty for an infusion of cash and managed expansion," said Bashar Masri, whose Ramallah-based holding company Massar International invests in real estate and financial and investment services.
The Siraj Palestine Fund would unleash "the latent potential of Palestinian SMEs by promoting technological advancement, job creation and addressing the acute shortage of equity capital", a statement said.
