Project Description
If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

The proposed transaction consists of up to US$85 million of un-funded IFC risk participation in an approximate US$2 billion global portfolio of predominantly emerging markets trade finance-related credit assets of Crédit Agricole CIB, the Corporate & Investment Banking arm of Crédit Agricole S.A, (“CACIB”). According to IFC,  the "risk participation will support further growth in CACIB’s trade finance and social projects in emerging markets."

Crédit Agricole CIB, the Corporate & Investment Banking arm of Crédit Agricole S.A, (“CACIB”), offers its clients worldwide a broad range of products and services in capital markets, investment banking, and commercial banking. The bank has a comprehensive and growing business franchise in many emerging markets.

The proposed transaction is expected to have a tenor of up to 5 years and consists of up to US$85 million of un-funded IFC risk participation in an approximate US$2 billion global portfolio of predominantly emerging markets trade finance-related credit assets on CACIB’s balance sheet. This risk participation will support further growth in CACIB’s trade finance and social projects in emerging markets.

Investment Description
Here you can find a list of individual development financial institutions that finance the project.

 The proposed IFC investment is up to US$85 million in the form of an un-funded risk sharing facility.  

Financial Intermediary
A financial intermediary is a bank or financial institution that receives funds from a development bank. A financial intermediary then lends these funds to their clients (private actors) in the form of loans, bonds, guarantees and equity shares. Financial intermediaries include insurance, pension and equity funds. The direct financial relationship is between the development bank and the financial intermediary.
Private Actor Relationship
A Private Actor is a non-governmental body or entity that is the borrower or client of a development project, which can include corporations, private equity and banks. This describes the private actors and their roles in relation to the project, when private actor information is disclosed or has been further researched.

There is often limited information publicly available about what development banks are funding through financial intermediaries. In 2021, the Early Warning System partnered with Oxfam International to incorporate information on high-risk projects being funded by financial intermediaries receiving funding from the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Dutch Development Bank (FMO).

The information listed below describes the relationship between the different private actors linked to high-risk sectors and subprojects of IFC and FMO's financial intermediary investments and/or the financial intermediary's parent companies made from 2017 through 2020, including any associated ring fences.

The database, however, does not explicitly or implicitly imply that IFC or FMO have material exposure to or are contractually or legally accountable to the sub-projects financed by their financial intermediaries or the financial intermediary's parent companies. It only shows a seemingly financial relationship among the different private actors, the financial intermediaries, and IFC or FMO.

An extended list of private actors is available in a separate file.

Contact Information
This section aims to support the local communities and local CSO to get to know which stakeholders are involved in a project with their roles and responsibilities. If available, there may be a complaint office for the respective bank which operates independently to receive and determine violations in policy and practice. Independent Accountability Mechanisms receive and respond to complaints. Most Independent Accountability Mechanisms offer two functions for addressing complaints: dispute resolution and compliance review.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IFC

The Compliance Advisor Ombudsman (CAO) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an IFC or MIGA- financed project. If you submit a complaint to the CAO, they may assist you in resolving a dispute with the company and/or investigate to assess whether the IFC is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. If you want to submit a complaint electronically, you can email the CAO at CAO@worldbankgroup.org. You can learn more about the CAO and how to file a complaint at http://www.cao-ombudsman.org/
