Beschreibung

The EIB would provide guarantees to a network of geographically distributed international banks (“Counterpart Banks”) covering their risk on selected Greek banks (“Guarantee Beneficiaries”) carrying out trade finance operations for SMEs and mid-caps located in Greece.

Ziele

Following the current market failure experienced by Greek companies and banks in the area of trade finance, the EIB proposes to establish the SMES Trade Finance Facility. The EIB guarantees will help re-activating credit lines in favour of Greek banks by international banks.

Kommentar(e)

This operation, subject to approval by the EIB’s Governing Bodies, will be the first fully-dedicated trade support operation established by the Bank.
