Description

The facility consists of a loan to Inecobank to support micro, small and medium sized enterprises (MSMEs) and Midcaps in Armenia.

Additionality and Impact

The operation aims to finance eligible small and medium sized investments undertaken by MSMEs and Mid-Caps in Armenia, thereby contributing to economic resilience, employment generating activities and alleviating the economic burden of the recent displacement crisis in the country. MSMEs make up the vast majority of firms in Armenia and, as such, play a vital role in creating and safeguarding employment. Lack of access to long-term finance has been identified as one of the most significant obstacles to the expansion of MSMEs, and the proposed Facility is expected to address these problems.

Objectifs

The aim is to enhance access to finance to the target beneficiaries implementing eligible projects in the country.
