Of the total amount, up to $20 million will be provided as a senior loan under the KyrSEFF III Green Economy Financing Facility. These funds will be available to businesses and households for projects related to energy efficiency, pollution reduction, and sustainable water resource management.
A senior loan is a type of financing that has the highest repayment priority over other forms of debt in the event of a borrower’s bankruptcy or liquidation.
An additional $5 million will be allocated to expand trade finance operations, enabling Kyrgyz companies to increase imports of equipment and boost exports of their products.
The decision comes amid growing demand for financing sustainable projects and the need to support foreign trade in the face of global economic challenges.
Since the start of its operations in the country, the EBRD has invested approximately €1.16 billion in 287 projects, primarily in the private sector and infrastructure.
