The International Finance Corporation (IFC) will provide a $50 million financing package to Amret Co to help the Cambodian microfinance institution increase lending to smaller businesses, particularly those in the agriculture sector and rural areas, it said in a press release.
The loan will help Amret provide loans to more 400,000 micro-entrepreneurs, most of whom work in agriculture. IFC acquired a 20 per cent stake in Amret in March 2015.
