Beschreibung
Quasi-equity co-investment platform between the EIB and FII (Finnish Industry Investment), a national promotional finance institution (NPI) in Finland, to support recovery of innovative small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) after the COVID-19 crisis.
Additionality and Impact
The operation concerns a co-investment facility between FII and the EIB that will deploy quasi-equity to innovative Finnish SMEs that have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. It targets capital-intensive technology sectors such as ICT, healthcare and industrial/deep tech. All of them are key strategic areas for the development of the EU's economy. With extensive experience in providing funding to such SMEs in Finland, FII is an ideal partner for the EIB to swiftly deploy capital in that market to alleviate the challenges resulting from the pandemic. From FII's perspective, the EIB's capital commitment significantly increases its resources to support the targeted innovative SMEs.
Ziele

TESI is also referred to as the Finnish Industry Investment (FII) and a national promotional finance institution (NPI) in Finland. The EIB would commit capital from the European Guarantee Fund (EGF) to invest in quasi-equity transactions originated, structured and managed by FII. The target companies would be Finnish SMEs affected by COVID-19.
