    Description
    Objectives

    This guarantee operation will be set-up as an unfunded linked risk sharing investment platform with full delegation to BPI France financement (BpiF). The operation is focused on a non-granular portfolio of new loans BpiF grants to French medium-sized corporates (mid-caps) to promote their business expansion, technology, investment into energy efficiency and other activities.

    The purpose of the operation is to increase the capacity of Bpifrance Financement to fund mid-caps, as a result of the regulatory capital relief resulting from the issuance of the guarantee.

    Environmental aspects
    Procurement

    In accordance with the Bank's policy to ensure that sub-loans comply with the EU acquis, in particular in the fields of environment and public procurement, the Bank will require the intermediary institution to take all the required measures to ensure that the environment and procurement procedures carried out by the final recipients under the sub-loans comply with the relevant EU environmental and procurement legislation and the applicable national legislation, provided that it is in conformity with EU rules.

    The promoter and the final beneficiaries are private companies not operating in the utilities sector and not having the status of a contracting authority. EU directives on public procurement are not applicable.
