Supporting a Serbian housing association through the GEFF programme

The EBRD is working with local partner banks and donors to provide financing to households and housing associations, supporting investment in energy-saving measures through its Green Economy Financing Facility (GEFF) programme – part of the Regional Energy Efficiency Programme.

In a pioneering move, Erste Bank, one of the EBRD’s local partners for the GEFF programme, has become the first bank to issue a green loan to a housing association in Serbia, representing a significant milestone in energy efficiency investments for apartment buildings.

The EBRD’s GEFF programme for the Western Balkans is co-funded by the European Union through the Western Balkans Investment Framework, Austria, Denmark, Japan, and Austria and Switzerland through the High-Impact Partnership on Climate Action (HIPCA).

*The HIPCA as a whole is supported by Austria, Canada, Finland, the Netherlands, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, TaiwanICDF and the United Kingdom”.

GEFF is part of the Regional Energy Efficiency Programme.
