In February 2012, the JPMorgan Chase Foundation launched the SME Catalyst for Growth (C4G) programme in South Africa to support the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) in collaboration with three core partner:

Dalberg Global Development Advisors (Dalberg), Aurik and Raizcorp. Through this partnership, the JPMorgan Chase Foundation is currently supporting the provision of business development support (BDS) services to 20 South African enterprises. This initiative aims to stimulate job creation and economic growth. It intends to systematically gather evidence on the value and impact of BDS services to build a robust ratings platform to assess BDS across the country.
