Project scope and objective

The purpose of the project is to support ION’s first long-term corporate bond issuance of Mex$200 million in Mexico. This issuance is part of ION’s Mex$500 million corporate bond issuance program to be registered in the Mexican Stock Exchange. The project will support ION’s strategy to: (i) expand its SME lending portfolio; and (ii) extend its funding tenors and diversify funding sources by tapping capital markets and reaching a new base of investors. IIC’s participation will strengthen ION’s business plan of increasing its SME lending portfolio from Mex$30 million in 2016 to Mex$285 million in 2021.
