Demographic growth, particularly in urban centers, creates major needs in terms of regional planning and access to infrastructure and public services. PROPARCO helps to meet these challenges by participating in financing major industrial and infrastructure projects through of direct or syndicated loans. Its investments in the transport, power generation and telecommunications sectors open up new growth opportunities for the local economic fabric.

  • PROPARCO works with local or international private groups under different institutional arrangements: public-private partnerships, concession contracts and responses to bid invitations.
  • It offers its clients long-term resources, with maturities of up to 20 years or more.
  • Financing is provided for projects which often have complex financial structures and involve numerous types of player: e.g. development finance institutions, multinationals, commercial banks, public sector players, etc.

    These investments in infrastructure have a direct impact on local communities which not only gain access to new services but also benefit from their significant economic impacts.

    Access to quality infrastructure is also a crucial factor for the efficiency and development of industries: adequate electricity supply, efficient transport network, etc. 

    Large projects also have a major impact on the development of the SME fabric through construction sites or subcontracting activities.
