Service and Development Action for the Micro-enterprise (ASIDME) began its operations in July 2000. ASIDME is one of the best organizations that implements the Trust Bank methodology within the Opportunity Network. This achievement is due to the quality within the group formation process, the rigorous continuation of the portfolio and the additional services offered to the clients, such as a systematic savings and training programs. These last two services have been invaluable to the agency since they differ from those offered by the competition. As a result, ASIDME has been able to move into the market quickly and easily become well known.
