MIXED CREDITS
On these pages you can read about the Danish Mixed Credits. The Mixed Credit Programme offers interest free or low interest loans. A typical loan has 10 years maturity and is aimed at various sectors, e.g. water and sanitation, energy, infrastructure, health and education.
MIXED CREDITS – PROMOTING GROWTH
The overall objective of Danish development aid is to reduce poverty, improve standards of living and contribute to economic growth in developing countries. This is also the objective of the Danish Mixed Credit Programme that was established by the Danish Government in 1993 – a programme that offers interest free or low interest loans. The loans finance equipment and related services for development projects in developing countries. The immediate objective of mixed credits is to help mobilize funds for projects that are financially “non-viable” and, therefore, would not be carried out without financial subsidies. By offering a mixed credit facility, Denmark is able to support development projects that cannot be financed on normal market conditions or solely by grant aid. The subsidy of a Danish Mixed Credit consists of up to three elements:
• Payment of interest – fully or partly
• Payment of the export credit premium and other financial costs
• Up-front grant to reduce the principal of the loan (only for projects in least developed countries)
Most types of projects can be taken into consideration. However, experience shows that eligible projects are often found in the following sectors: water supply and sanitation, renewable energy, infrastructure, environment, health, and education. Maturity is normally 10 years.
