Komercijalna Banka Komercijalna Banka is a commercial bank, lending to both larger clients as well as small- and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). The bank provides most standard banking services such as deposit taking, trade related financial services, working capital loans, medium-term loans, letters of credit and guarantees. The project consists of a Euro5 million loan package for onlending to SMEs for modernization/expansion needs and working capital. The project would have the dual objectives of easing the medium-term funding constraint of private sector enterprises, including SMEs, and at the same time supporting the institutional development of the FYR Macedonian banking sector, through the imposition of prudential financial covenants. The loan would also lengthen the average maturity of the funding base for Komercijalna Banka.     With the project IFC would play an important role as provider of medium-term capital to SMEs, a sector which is severely underserved with term investment capital. In addition IFC will help the bank in appraising the subprojects by providing technical assistance to the credit department and help the bank in establishing prudent lending guidelines by imposing financial covenants.
EVN Macedonia Previously known as Elektrostopanstvo na Makedonija (ESM), EVN Macedonia AD (EVN Macedonia or  the Company) is the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonias (FYR Macedonia) sole electricity supply and distribution company serving more than 640,000 customers and a population of 2 million people. In order to finance the Companys investment program, in 2008 each of IFC and EBRD provided a long term loan of 35 million (IFCs project number #26093). The loans will be repaid in 18 equal installments that started in July 2011 and will be ending in January 2020.  In line with the EU Energy Policy, following the new Energy Law that was enacted in February 2011 and the new secondary regulation, EVN Macedonia and the Macedonian energy market is going through a major reform and liberalization process. Due to the ongoing unbundling of its distribution, supply and generation businesses and the changes to market mechanics the Company is expected to require additional working capital by the beginning of 2012. In order to finance this working capital need and capital expenditures of the Company IFC will provide a long term loan up to 7 million. EBRD also considers participating in the financing. If EBRD, decides to participate the IFC loan amount will be reduced to 3.5 million.    The Companys capital expenditure includes items for high voltage lines, substations, low and medium voltage lines, connections to customers, transformers, meters, telecommunications, and some generation (investment in a new small hydropower project of 1.1MW in 2012).  The potential environmental or social impacts of these items are similar to those supported by IFCs previous investment made in the Company in 2008.  The main business of the Company is electricity distribution with about 26,360 km distribution lines.  The Company has 11 small hydropower plants (in total 46MW capacity). The Project''s expected development impacts are as follow: (a) Supporting the Company during the power sector deregulation by providing long term financing,  (b) Continue supporting EVN with their turnaround strategy that essentially focuses on increasing bill collection rates and reducing energy losses that will lead to significant electricity savings for FYR Macedonia, and (c) Promoting proper sector reform and the development of a competitive power market in the country.
