Characteristics of financing
Financing is granted to all stages of the projects' realization - both creation of new enterprises and expansion, reorganization or modernization of the already existing companies.
Usually DEG puts its representative on the board of directors of the enterprise that has received financing for the period of the project's realization.
When granting the share capital, the investments are made in the non-controlling blocks of shares for 5-10 years.
When granting a credit, the finances are allocated for 4-10 years (the period of financing can be longer in certain cases). The credit's currency is usually EURO, sometimes - USD or another foreign currency. The interest rates may be either fixed or floating. As a rule, pawning of property of the enterprise - recipient of financing is used as surety for meeting the obligations.
As an option, mixed forms of financing presupposing granting of funds partially in the form of the share capital and partially in the form of a credit, can be used.
If necessary, with DEG's assistance, additional investors can be attracted for the realization of the project - international institutes of development (International Financial Corporation, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, European Investment Bank), as well as the funds of the special financial programs of the German government.
In certain cases DEG can give guarantees to the local investors in the country of the project's realization with the view of attracting additional credit resources in the national currency for the enterprise - recipient of financing.
DEG also renders non-financial support to the financed enterprises at all stages of the investment project's realization: assistance in the project's development, financial engineering, advisory support and practical assistance in resolving the arising problems.
