Guarantees

Our Guarantee Facility enables EDF to partner with financial institutions by sharing credit risk. Through bank guarantees, we make it possible for lenders to extend financing to businesses that demonstrate strong growth potential but may lack sufficient collateral.

This solution is designed to:

• Unlock access to credit for high-potential enterprises.
• Reduce risk for partner banks, encouraging them to support export-oriented projects.
• Promote investment in strategic sectors such as agriculture, tourism, mining, and manufacturing.

By leveraging EDF guarantees, businesses can secure the financing they need to scale operations, expand into export markets, and contribute to Malawi’s economic transformation.

Ideal for:

• Exporters and manufacturers seeking working capital or project finance.
• Businesses with viable projects but limited collateral.
• Institutions looking to co-finance large-scale development initiatives.
