SMEDA is a specialized organization created to formulate Policy to encourage the growth of SMEs in the country. A partnership was inked through an MOU with SMEDA and a dedicated cell was created in FDA with the objective to:

• Identify potential SMEs in FATA.
• Help developed a FATA specific SME lending package.
• Educate potential SME applicants in preparation and furnishing of loan documents.

SMEDA is helping FATA DA in establishing linkages with organizations which are engaged in providing support and training to communities in FATA. SMEDA is also providing assistance in establishing linkages with industries and service organizations for placement of FATA youth through our field internship programme.
