Description
The project consists of a credit facility to be provided to up to three financial institutions, to channel
financial services to forestry and agroforestry MSMEs in Honduras (the “Facility”). The
participating financial institutions (“FI”) will include second-tier institutions (such as FACACH and
FUNDER) and (first-tier financial institutions (banks, savings and credit cooperatives, anchor
companies, rural banks, and agricultural cooperatives).
An environmental and social (“E&S”) review will be conducted for each FI interested in
participating in the facility. To this end, potential partners will be assessed by IDB Lab based on
eligibility criteria and will be subject to a capacity analysis and due diligence, at which point the
project team will be able to reconfirm the selection of a maximum of three FIs.
