Project scope and objective

Operating in Chile since 1998, Eurocapital S.A. engages in recourse factoring operations, purchasing invoices, bills of exchange, checks, contracts, promissory notes, and other instruments issued by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the course of their operations. The proposed project consists of a loan of up to US$10 million. This IIC loan will enable Eurocapital to carry out factoring operations denominated in or indexed to the U.S. dollar, primarily involving sales of exports by SMEs that meet the IIC’s eligibility criteria.

Eurocapital has a 3.2% share of the local factoring market and 20 branch offices throughout Chile, including its parent company.
