Who is our customer

BMCE Bank of Africa is a leading pan-African financial services group. It is a universal bank with a highly diversified range of operations including retail banking, commercial banking, investment banking and specialised financial services, such as leasing, factoring, consumer credit and debt recovery. The Group, which employs more than 13,000 employees, serves today more than 5.5 million customers through more than 2,300 points of sale in some thirty countries. http://www.notremondeestcapital.com/

What is our funding objective?

The facility is dedicated to support BMCE’s initiatives towards improvement of solid waste management practices and standards, one of the major environmental challenges in Morocco. Management of municipal solid waste is lacking proper infrastructure and suitable funding in areas outside of major cities.

Why do we fund this investment?

It signifies the first Green Finance transaction that FMO provides to a bank in Africa. Given the pioneering role of Morocco in the area of Sustainable Finance initiatives and the leading role of BMCE Bank of Africa, we are optimistic about the positive demonstration effect of the transaction for Africa.
