SLGP RSF Sogesol
US$ millions unless stated. Haitian fiscal year, October to September. FY2026-27 began October 1, 2026.
Objective
The project is expected to have strong development impact in terms of: (1) supporting the growth of the productive sectors of the Haitian economy by expanding and increasing access to finance to small enterprises. The SME finance forum estimated that the total credit gap in Haiti amounts to almost US$2.5 billion, with 49% of MSMEs reporting that they are either under or unserved by financial institutions. (2) promoting growth in agribusiness, a key economic sector representing 22% of GDP. It is estimated that only 28% of farmers have bank accounts and 19% received a credit for agricultural purposes. (3) strengthening the Haitian financial sector's competitiveness through capacity building, demonstration and replication channels.
As published by IFC Finances One, in its original language.
Description
The proposed project consists of an up to US$ 5 million equivalent risk sharing facility ('RSF') with Société Générale de Solidarité S.A. (Sogesol) on a portfolio of up to US$10 million equivalent. The project will support Sogesol in increasing its lending to small enterprises in the country, including agri-enterprises in Haiti. The project is part of IFC’s Small Loan Guarantee Program which provides risk sharing instruments to client financial institutions looking to expand SME lending in difficult to serve markets. SLGP is supported by the IDA18 IFC-MIGA Private Sector Window’s Blended Finance Facility (PSW-BFF), which was created by the Word Bank Group to catalyse private sector investment in IDA countries, with a focus on fragile and conflict-affected states.
