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.

According to the Bank’s website, this summary covers an application by Deutsche Bank AG and/or any of its subsidiaries (Deutsche Bank), and/or other lenders yet to be determined for coverage of a proposed short-term loan facility, focused on supporting trade, to the Government of Angola. The Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) would provide the lenders with up to EUR225 million in trade finance guarantees against the risk of non-payment by the Government of Angola.

The MIGA-covered facility would be used to provide short-term loans for trade-related payments, aimed mainly at supporting the agriculture and healthcare sectors. The tenor of each loan to be made under the facility is up to one year.

Early Warning System Project Analysis
For a project with severe or irreversible impacts to local community and natural resources, the Early Warning System Team may conduct a thorough analysis regarding its potential impacts to human and environmental rights.

The MIGA-covered facility will support short-term trade payments to suppliers of the Government of Angola. These transactions pose minimal environmental and social (E&S) risks and impacts and as such, the overall portfolio risk is considered low. The project has thus been categorized as 'FI-3' under MIGA's Policy on Environmental and Social Sustainability (2013).

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IFC/MIGA

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
