The Netherlands Development Finance Company (FMO) supports the private sector in developing countries and emerging markets in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Central and Eastern Europe. They do this with loans, participations, guarantees and other investment promotion activities. The goal is to contribute to the structural and sustainable economic growth in these countries and, together with the private sector, obtain healthy returns. These returns make FMO a valuable risk partner. FMO builds bridges between entrepreneurs and capital for sustainable development and healthy returns.

Via the LDC Infrastructure Fund, FMO supports the development and improvement of social-economic infrastructure in Least Developed Countries (LDCs). FMO aims to stimulate private investors to invest in private or public-private infrastructure projects in these countries. Through providing risk capital, the LDC Infrastructure Fund removes a definite risk for other financiers, which should thus catalyze additional private funds.

 

Through this Fund, FMO may provide various forms of long-term financing for large infrastructure projects in LDCs. Also feasible are investments in international or multilateral funds that in turn facilitate infrastructure projects as defined by the Fund.
