The bigger portion represents a EUR-50-million risk-sharing facility to be extended by the EBRD to BMCE, improving the access to finance for local businesses and expanding the bank’s financial products.

The EBRD will also sign a EUR-10-million loan under the Morocco Green Economy Financing Facility (GEFF), supporting sustainable energy projects via local partner banks. This loan consists of an initial tranche of EUR 5 million, of which EUR 3.75 million from EBRD and EUR 1.25 million from the Green Climate Fund (GCF). The second tranche will be extended at a later stage, the bank stated.
