FOM
FOM stimulates the Dutch private sector to invest in emerging markets by furnishing capital and experience.
What we do
Financial markets in emerging market economies are often inefficient. Together with higher risks, this makes it difficult for joint ventures & full subsidairies of Dutch companies to raise capital.
The Fund Emerging Markets (FOM) offers these joint ventures/subsidairies a direct opportunity to strengthen their financial structure.
This can be equity, a loan or a guarantee. The form is tailored to the specific finance needs of the local enterprise. One of the conditions of FOM finance is that the Dutch sponsor contributes to strengthening the financial structure of the local enterprise and is prepared and able to provide certain guarantees.
The finance amounts to max. €10 million. The maturity can range from three to 12 years.
The FMO Approach
FOM is a joint initiative of the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and FMO. Main goal is to promote economic development in Emerging Markets by stimulating investments by Dutch companies in these countries. By financing companies that would otherwise not have access to finance in those markets, FOM supports Dutch companies in their international strategy and maximizes the development impact of these investments.
