Smarter Equipment Financing for Angola

Angola businesses with locally-financed equipment loans running 20–30% over 2–3 years now have access to a structured alternative. ECA-backed structuring offers dramatically lower annual cash-flow burden, 5–8 year terms, and coverage up to 85% of the contract value — supporting the PRODESI program and Angola’s post-oil economic diversification.
