Under the project RSF (Risk Sharing Framework), EBRD will guarantee on unfunded basis typically 50% (up to a maximum of 65% and not more than EUR 25 million per sub-transaction) of individual loan exposures of PBZ with the remainder risk remaining with PBZ. Each sub-loan will be individually proposed to EBRD for approval. PBZ will be the first bank in Croatia to join the EBRD's Risk Sharing Framework ("RSF"). The RSF will support PBZ's strategy for continued sustainable growth focusing on SME and midcap segment while allowing the bank to meet financing needs of larger clients. RSF will allow the bank to expand the relationship with the clients while keeping the risk-weighted assets under control and allowing the bank to manage internal industry and single exposure concentration limits. RSF will be used to support working capital and investment needs of SMEs and mid/large corporates. The project is in line with the Country Strategy for Croatia (BDS/CR/22-01 (F)), supporting private sector competitiveness through fostering innovation, resource efficiency as well as improvement of the business climate and economic inclusion as well as deepening financial markets to broaden access to finance.
