CHAPTER VIII. Trade and Project Financing

Medium-term ExIm Bank financing is available in Lithuania for credits that are backed by the full faith and credit of the Lithuanian government or guaranteed by a proven, reputable financial entity. EBRD financing is also available for both private and public sector projects. The EBRD recently offered an ECU 11.4 million financing for the regional Baltic Investment Fund. Lithuania has received grants of ECU 33 million for safety upgrades and ECU 7 million for an in-depth safety assessment at the Ignalina nuclear power plant. Lithuania is also benefiting from 21 technical cooperation projects totaling ECU 6.3 million and from approximately a third of some ECU 8.5 million approved for 21 regional technical cooperation projects in the Baltic States.
