Beschreibung

The project consists in a guarantee covering EFL's existing portfolio of loans and leases to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and mid-caps. The operation supports EFL's lending expansion in the SMEs and mid-caps market.

Additionality and Impact

The operation will generate additional lending capacity for EFL, supporting the financing of small and medium scale projects undertaken by SMEs and Midcaps in Poland. As such, it falls under the scope of EU objectives through its contribution to job creation, increased competitiveness and productivity of SMEs and Mid-Caps. EFL has an in-depth experience with implementing EIB products through its network of branches in the targeted regions.

 

It is expected that 100% of the finance unlocked by the EIB will benefit cohesion areas and as such, help reduce regional disparities per the EU's cohesion policy.

 

Furthermore, synthetic securitisations represent innovative capital management tools as existing structured finance instruments in the Polish market remain scarce. EIB's participation will create a signalling effect that aims to crowd-in the private sector financial intermediaries, thus contributing to the development of the financial market in Poland, while supporting the capital market union objective.

Ziele

The aim is to enhance access to finance to the target beneficiaries. While strengthening the social and economic foundations of the less well-off regions, the operation will also support the digital transition of the economy given its Innovation and Digitalisation window.
