Finanzauto secures USD 20 million senior loan from the Global Climate Partnership Fund

Transitioning Colombia toward e-mobility

Zurich March 31, 2023, the Global Climate Partnership Fund (GCPF), managed by responsAbility Investments AG, closed a USD 20 million senior secured loan with Finanzauto S.A, Colombia’s leading non-banking financial institution in the car lending sector. The deal used IBR, a local currency floating interest rate benchmark, and was executed in collaboration with TCX Fund, mitigating the FX risk that Finanzauto faces. This is particularly important in Colombia given the sharp depreciation of the Colombian peso vis-à-vis the US Dollar. The loan will support the company’s transition to an energy efficient fleet by financing hybrid and electric vehicles, contributing to Colombia’s GHG emissions reductions in the transport sector.
