Guarantee SME support to Equity BCDC Garanti SME stöd till Equity BCDC Insatsen är en låneportföljgaranti från Sida och USAID/DFC som syftar till att främja tillgången till finansiering för mikroföretag och små och medelstora företag (MSME) i Demokratiska Republiken Kongo, med fokus på jordbrukssektorn och sektorn för förnybar energi, som bidrar till landets ekonomiska tillväxt.

Insatsen faller under Strategin för Sveriges utvecklingssamarbete med Demokratiska republiken Kongo, 2021-2025. De stödområden som är relevanta för insatsen är miljö, hållbart utnyttjande av naturresurser och livsmedelstrygghet. This contribution is a Sida and USAID/DFC loan portfolio guarantee intended to promote access to finance for Micro Small and Medium sized enterprises (MSME) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with focus on the agriculture and renewable energy sector contributing to the economic growth of the country.

The intervention falls under the Strategy for Sweden’s development cooperation with Democratic Republic of the Congo, 2021-2025. The support areas relevant for this contribution are environment, sustainable use of natural resources, and food security. The new proposed guarantee contribution to Equity BCDC is based on the experiences from the first guarantee, which has been successful in terms of utilization and in demonstrating additionality and increasing the access to finance for MSMEs, not at least within the agricultural sector. The market demand from businesses for financing is large and unmet in the financial market as of today, which was a main reason for DFC and Sida to in a joint effort launch a process of call for expression of interest to assess the conditions for implementing a new guarantee facility in DRC. DFC and Sida based this selection process on a predetermined selection criteria and assessed all of the financial institutions applying for the guarantee, of which Equity BCDC was determined to be the most suitable institution for a guarantee collaboration.

The new guarantee will focus on enabling Equity BCDC to extend their lending to MSMEs, cooperatives, businesses within agriculture, investments in renewable energy as well as having a clear target of including women run and/or owned businesses in DRC (40 % of the total guaranteed portfolio will be allocated to this target group).

Mashambanzou Care Trust  - 2024 - 2025 Mashambanzou Care Trust - (SPOTS) 2024 - 2025 Mashambanzou Care Trust programme seeks to reduce the vulnerability of children in adversities as a result of poverty, HIV, TB and disability by providing socioeconomic and psychological support to families, the community.  The programme specifically targets highly vulnerable and poor members of the community that include granny headed, child headed, orphans and other vulnerable children, female headed and other highly impoverished households. It raises awareness and promote children's rights as well as prioritizing children's need within health care. The programme also targets the poor communities especially those infected teenagers who have poor access to comprehensive sexual reproductive health and HIV services, partly due to stigma, insufficient support by health care workers, low-risk perception and economic disempowerment or poverty. This programme will seek to ensure reasonable sexual reproductive health by strengthening the institution’s provision of SRHR for both infected young men and young women to increase their life-skills and assertiveness in making positive choices in the utilization of Contraception, Gender Based Violence, HIV Services. The primary beneficiaries of the contribution will be young people who have been relatively left behind in terms of positive sexual reproductive health education. Mashambanzou Care Trust-programmet syftar till att minska sårbarheten för barn i utsatthet till följd av fattigdom, HIV, TB och funktionshinder, genom att tillhandahålla socioekonomiskt och psykologiskt stöd till familjer och omgivningen. Programmet riktar sig specifikt till mycket utsatta och fattiga personer, vilket inkluderar hushåll som leds av mor/farföräldrar, barn, kvinnor samt andra utsatta hushåll. Insatsen ökar medvetenheten och främjar barns rättigheter samt prioriterar barns behov inom hälso- och sjukvården. Programmet riktar sig också till fattiga områden, särskilt HIV-smittade tonåringar som har dålig tillgång till sexuell reproduktiv hälsa och hiv-tjänster, delvis på grund av stigma, otillräckligt stöd från sjukvårdspersonal och fattigdom. Detta program kommer att sträva efter att förbättra sexuell reproduktiv hälsa genom att stärka institutionens tillhandahållande av SRHR för både HIV-smittade unga män och kvinnor för att öka deras livsfärdigheter och självförtroende när det gäller val i användningen av preventivmedel, könsbaserat våld, HIV-tjänster. De främsta förmånstagarna av bidraget kommer att vara ungdomar som har blivit relativt eftersatta vad gäller positiv utbildning i sexuell reproduktiv hälsa. Overall Goal is: Improved access to SRHR, Health Care and Rights by 2025.

Objectives of the intervention include;

1. Improved access to integrated HIV and AIDS, care and support serices to PLWH.

2. Improved access to comprehensive Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) Services to PLWH and their families through the family centred approach.

3. Improved income earning capacity and nutrition for PLWH.

4. Improved access to ecuation, protection and nutritional support amongst children in need.

Monitoring of PFM Monitoring av OFS Insatsen "Monitoring av PFM reform" (reform av offentlig finansiell styrning) ger stöd till den svenska ambassaden i Monrovia för att analysera och följa upp resultaten av reformprojektet gällande offentlig finansiell styrning i Liberia.  Sverige bidrar att finansiera OFS reformen med 104 miljoner SEK under 2012-2016. Konsult(erna) deltar i Världsbankens uppföljningsmissioner (halvårsvisa), och gör fördjupade analyser av specifika resultatområden inom reformen. Ett exempel är finansiell decentralisering och gender budgeting. Under 2016 ska konsulterna även specifikt följa upp OFS reformens effekter för leverans av offentliga tjänster och bidra till att analysera hur Liberia kan integrera jämställdhet i budgeten och uppföljning av den.
Detta beslut handlar om att förlänga pågående kontrakt från 1 januari 2016 tom 30 april 2017. Orsaken till förlängningen är att OFS-reformen pågår tom mars 2017 efter en förlängning som Ministry of Finance och givarna kommit överens om efter att EU har beslutat att komma med och bidra med 3 miljoner USD. En förlängning behövs för att höja hållbarheten av resultaten vid slutet av projektperioden (30 juni, 2016) och p g a förseningar orsakade av Ebola krisen. Monitoring of results regards Liberia's agenda for public financial   management, and support to the embassy to analyse the developments in the area
