Project scope and objective

The proposed transaction consists of an A/B loan for up to US$70 million (the “Loan”), financed as follows: (i) a committed loan for up to US$20 million to be financed by IDB Invest; (ii) an uncommitted loan for up to US$30 million, also to be financed by IDB Invest; and (iii) a B loan for up to US$20 million to be financed by institutional investors. 

The Loan has an availability period of up to seven years, with each facility having an amortizable term of up to two years. The Project aims to increase Caja Araucana’s available financing so that it can increase its operations (balance sheet) of social credit for women workers, social credit for pensioners, and green social credit. Technical advisory services are also being designed to help Caja Araucana develop its sustainability strategy.
