ME-T1199 : Support to FINRURAL with an Environmental and Social Risk Management System

The specific objective is to support the development and implementation of an environmental and social risk management system in the institution that makes it possible for it, in the medium term, to: (i) expand the scope of eligibility of sub-projects in new multi-sectoral credit loan with the Bank into larger and/or more environmentally and socially sensitive sub-projects; (ii) enhance its management of environmental and social risk in its full portfolio; (iii) identify potential business opportunities arising from the analysis of those risks; and (iv) count with the required institutional capabilities to expand its access even further to highly concessional sources of bilateral and multilateral funding.
