Closing Date: October 19, 2015.
The CFC (an intergovernmental
financial institution) provides financing to organisations and enterprises
engaged in commodity value chains in its member countries. Through a range of
financial instruments, the CFC seeks to support business activities in the
field of commodity development, including agriculture, minerals and metals in
Developing Countries. The intervention should, besides giving a sound financial
return, also provide for a measurable social and environmental return.
The CFC supported activities
promote the development of the commodity sector in CFC member countries and
contribute to sustainable development in the following aspects:
1. Social: Create employment (particularly for
youth and women), provide sustained increase in household incomes, reduce
poverty, and enhance food security.
2. Economic: Enhance production and productivity,
achieve higher local value addition; improve competitiveness of producers,
producer organisations and small and medium sized industries, support the
financial sector development.
3. Environmental: Enhance production taking into
account the environment and its long term possibilities for the same, or
increased use of productive resources while maintaining or reducing the impact
on the environment.
The CFC supports implementation
of activities along the value chain that:
§
are innovative, scalable and replicable,
§
are financially sustainable,
§
have a potential measurable positive
socio-economic and environmental impact on the stakeholders in commodity value
chains as compared to the prevailing baseline situation,
§
develop stronger connections with existing
markets or create new markets along the value chain,
§ increase financial or other services available
for commodity producers and commodity based businesses,
§
enhance knowledge generation and information
dissemination, and
§ build effective and cost efficient collaboration
between producers, industry, governments, civil society organisations and other
stakeholders for commodity based development.
