BOGOTÁ, Colombia – The National Coffee Fund (FoNC), which finances public goods and services for coffee growers, is firmly entering the field of sustainable financing. Thanks to the efforts and commitment of the Colombian Coffee Growers Federation (FNC) as its administrator, the FoNC contracted medium-term debt with the renowned Japanese bank Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) for USD 40 million over three years.

This operation is classified as sustainable financing according to the principles of social loans of the Loan Market Association, Asia Pacific Loan Market Association and Loan Syndications & Trading Association, specialized in the syndicated loan industry.
