The 2026 Cerise+SPTF Global Meeting will take place in Cairo from September 28 to October 1, 2026. The event is co-organized by the Egyptian Union for Financing Medium, Small, and Micro Enterprises. It brings together international financial institutions, investors, policymakers, and experts in responsible finance, social, and environmental performance. The meeting's theme, "Finance to Empower & Protect," highlights best practices in responsible finance, customer protection, and financial inclusion.
Tamweeli, a financial services company, is participating as a golden sponsor in the event. This aligns with the company's recent achievement of obtaining a gold-level customer protection certificate from Cerise+SPTF. Tamweeli is the first financial services company in Egypt to receive this certification. The certificate is a result of an independent evaluation of the company's customer protection policies and practices according to international standards.
Ahmed Khorshid, CEO and Managing Director of Tamweeli, stated that hosting the global meeting in Cairo reflects Egypt's growing importance in responsible finance. He emphasized that the event presents an opportunity for knowledge sharing and building new partnerships between financial institutions, regulatory bodies, investors, and experts from various markets.
Khorshid highlighted that Tamweeli's participation as a golden sponsor demonstrates the company's commitment to contributing to the international dialogue on the future of responsible finance. The company's focus areas include customer protection, governance, digital finance, and sustainability, which support the development of the micro, small, and medium enterprise financing sector in Egypt and the region.
The gold-level customer protection certificate is a culmination of Tamweeli's long-standing strategy to integrate customer protection principles into its service delivery. The company has obtained several international accreditations, including ISO 9001 for quality management, ISO 27001 for information security, and ISO 14001 for environmental management.
The Cerise+SPTF 2026 Global Meeting features workshops, training sessions, and a main conference on September 29-30. The conference discusses customer protection, empowerment, and enhancing their ability to face financial crises and risks. The event concludes on October 1 with field visits to several financial service providers in Egypt.
