Who is our customer

European Financing Partners (EFP) was established as a special purpose vehicle in Luxembourg in 2003 and has been operational since 2004. Shareholders include EIB (50%) and european development finance institutions (EDFIs). The aim of EFP is to be an efficient financing vehicle for EDFIs, in which they can jointly provide financing that creates sustainable development in the private sector in African, Caribbean and Pacific countries.

What is our funding objective?

After more than 10 years of existence, the EFP concept has proven to be an efficient pooling vehicle to catalyze EIB funds and smaller EDFI members. Therefore, FMO has taken a EUR 25 million share in the fifth EFP fund, which totals EUR 220 million. This will enable EFP to continue its operations.

Why do we fund this investment?

As a financing vehicle, EFP has successfully provided efficient processes from which not only its shareholders profit but also its clients. It has been successful in stimulating sustainable growth in its focus countries. An expansion of the EFP portfolio is therefore a positive development.
