About the programme
The Resilience and Livelihoods Guarantee (RLG) from the EBRD, supported by the EU and other donors, covers up to 50% of credit risks, provides financing for businesses in critical sectors, and supports vulnerable groups. It also offers up to 30% cashback for “green” investments, contributing to Ukraine’s economic resilience and recovery.
This component is funded by the EU as part of the joint EU-EBRD SME Competitiveness and Inclusion Programme – SMECI. Eligible borrowers will have access to technical assistance and investment incentives grants financed by EBRD CRSF ranging from 10% to 30% of their project costs upon successful completion of their investment projects. The Program is supported by the European Union through the Ukraine Investment Framework (UIF) and EBRD Crisis Response Special Fund (EBRD CRSF). The EBRD facility will be supported by first-loss risk cover funded by the European Union under its Ukraine Investment Framework (UIF) initiative.
