Scaling inclusive and sustainable lending in El Salvador

ILX participated in financing, through two tranches, in a syndicated loan originated by the IFC to one of El Salvador’s largest banks. Both tranches support the bank in expanding lending to SMEs, women-owned businesses and climate-related investments, including green building and blue assets, the first financing for such assets in the region, and promoting clean-water management. This enables increased access to finance for underserved segments while supporting more sustainable economic activity in the region.
