About this grant
This facility provides credit enhancement and guarantee instruments to reduce risk in project finance for small and medium-sized enterprises, mid-cap companies, and strategic infrastructure projects across the EU. The aim is to unlock private capital for borrowers who face barriers to conventional credit access. Eligible applicants include SMEs, mid-caps and larger companies at seed through mature stages, provided the project can be structured as project finance or corporate lending and meets strategic criteria around infrastructure, climate or innovation. Borrowers must demonstrate viable project economics and creditworthiness. The guarantee or credit enhancement must align with the funder's strategic objectives. This is a debt and concessional finance facility rather than a grant programme. Applications are assessed on project viability and alignment with strategic priorities.
