Haiti - Economy : The EIB may provide loans for new projects 29/05/2017 09:35:24 Vincent Degert, Ambassador of the European Union, commented "One of the strengths of European aid is to target the most vulnerable and marginalized categories of the Haitian population. Indeed, women and small entrepreneurs in rural areas will be able to benefit from the funds that have so far been lacking under this agreement, in order to be able to recapitalize and, secondly, secondly to build up small-scale business structures that will enable them to acquire a minimum of financial autonomy and to take care of their families. This approach fits perfectly with our approach to cooperation, which aims to strengthen the resilience of the most vulnerable populations while improving their prospects for the future." Let's recall that the EIB has already invested a total of 1.2 billion gourdes (± 16 million Euros) in loans and equity investments in favor of four projects related to private sector development (SMEs) . It also granted non-reimbursable aid of 45 million gourdes for the Médecins Sans Frontières modular traumatic surgical hospital built after the 2010 earthquake in Tabarre. Last year, following Hurricane Matthew, the EIB Institute, the Group's workforce and the EIB itself donated 19 million gourdes to six charities working to ensure the reconstruction of Haiti.
