Financing of smaller-scale projects carried out by various counterparts including for instance financial institutions/banks, corporates (including small and medium-sized enterprises), public entities, sovereigns and special purpose vehicles. The project will be in accordance with the objectives set out for the Cotonou Agreement, to help reduce poverty in the ACP/OCT states by contributing to sustained economic growth and in particular by way of its focus on private sector. The project will enable the Bank to intervene in some of the smaller ACP/OCT economies that normally generate smaller financing opportunities and to support access to long-term financing across a wide range of sectors.
