Project scope and objective

The proposed transaction consists of a senior loan of up US$10 million (the “Loan”) from IDB Invest. The Loan has a twelve-month tenor, is amortized at maturity, and is renewable for three additional periods of up to 12 months at the discretion of IDB Invest. The project involves funding Progreso to increase its operation (balance) by offering more lending access to Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises (“MSMEs”) customers, as well as adding new MSMEs to its portfolio.

Additionally, climate-related technical advisory services are being designed.
