Project description and objectives:
|
The proposed project is a second loan of US$ 15 million to Europlan (formerly known as DeltaLeasing), the leading provider of financial leases to Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). The Project is aimed to support its planned growth of the leasing portfolio to private sector SMEs in over 27 regions of Russia.

Transition impact:

2. Strengthening the development of the regional SMEs by promoting financial intermediation.
3. The Project will provide positive demonstration effect to the market that well-managed, transparent and properly capitalised leasing companies can develop a long-term relationship with EBRD.
