Description
Objectives

Global Loan for the financing of projects of SMEs and, possibly, small infrastructure projects at Municipality level (within the Bank's usual eligibility criteria), covering all of the productive sectors in FRY.

The level of financial intermediation in FRY is low, exemplified by the fact that only a reduced number of businesses borrow from banks. By making such funds available to the local financial system for on-lending, the proposed operation would stimulate a number of investments that would not otherwise have taken place, promoting growth and creating employment.

Environmental aspects
Procurement

All investments financed under the proposed loan will be required to comply with the relevant legal framework in FRY and to be acceptable in environmental terms to the Bank and in line with EU environmental policy.

EIB's usual procurement rules will apply.
