WASHINGTON, 3 augustus 2019  /PRNewswire/ -- IDB Invest en Banistmo kondigen de uitgifte van de eerste sociale gender-obligatie in Latijns-Amerika aan, met een totale waarde van $ 50 miljoen en een looptijd van vijf jaar. Banistmo geeft de obligatie uit, terwijl IDB Invest het structureert en in z'n geheel opkoopt.

Gema Sacristán, Chief Investment Officer of IDB Invest (right), and Aimeé Sentmat de Grimaldo, Executive President of Banistmo (left) announce the first gender bond issued in Latin America, for $50 million and with a 5-year tenor. The funds captured will be used to finance women-led small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Panama. The announcement was made at the World Economic Forum in Cartagena, Colombia.

Door deze uitgifte is Panama het eerste land in Latijns-Amerika met een sociale gender-gerichte obligatie, met een focus op de uitbreiding van de toegang tot financiering voor door vrouwen geleide kleine en middelgrote ondernemingen. De middelen zullen het ondernemerschap en de economische emancipatie van vrouwen in dat land bevorderen.

De obligatie beschikt over een externe second opinion van Vigeo Eiris, die de naleving van de internationale normen voor sociale obligaties in de Sociale obligatieprincipes van de International Capital Market Association (ICMA) bevestigt.

De obligatie zal mogelijk kunnen bijdragen aan vier UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG: VN-doelstellingen voor duurzame ontwikkeling) te weten: Gendergelijkheid (SDG 5), Waardig werk en economische groei (SDG 8), Industrie, innovatie en infrastructuur (SDG 9) en Ongelijkheid verminderen (SDG 10).

In 2018 introduceerde Banitsmo Impulsa, een programma dat training verstrekt op het gebied van persoonlijke en zakelijke financiën aan meer dan duizend vrouwen. Impulsa maakt deel uit het women entrepreneurship Banking (weB)-programma, dat in 2012 samengesteld werd door IDB Invest en IDB Lab, om banken te helpen de vrouwenmarkt beter van dienst te kunnen zijn. weB heeft meer dan $ 800 miljoen aan leningen en $ 5 miljoen aan technische assistentie goedgekeurd aan 20 banken in 12 landen.
