Who is our customer
Amret is a mature and professional deposit-taking microfinance institution in Cambodia. It provides group and individual loans to poor women in rural areas, and is mostly active in the agriculture sector. Amret is a strong long-standing client of FMO with sound financial performance and high quality management.
What is our funding objective?
The long-term FMO-A senior loan will support Amret's growth plan to reach out to the MSME sector. This is complemented by a long-term FMO-A subordinated loan, which will support Amret's growth plan by strengthening its capital base.
Why do we fund this investment?
This is a highly inclusive transaction because it provides financial services to the lower segment of a low-income country. Liquidity in Cambodia is still relatively scarce and Amret has thus far received predominantly small-scale and medium-term loans. This long-term loan will support Amret's expansion in the MSME sector.
