3Crisis Presents Multiple Challenges
- 1. Lack of Liquidity As crisis evolves, money
has moved towards low risk (government T bills,
large corporates, short-term assets) affecting - Trade - Availability of trade finance declining
- Infrastructure - Projects with maturity
mismatches coming to a halt - Microfinance A major cutback, not a
priority/core business for commercial lending - Agribusiness - As credit is drying up,
significant drops in crops next year expected - SME Lending Drying up but great job creation
role once economy starts to recover - 2. Weakened Financial Infrastructure Weakened
financial intermediaries cut back lending,
investment business environment becomes more
challenging - 3. Bank Recapitalization As losses mount,
recapitalization of the banking sector is needed - 4. Debt Restructuring Even strong businesses in
emerging markets struggle to roll over maturing
debt - 5. Troubled Assets Collapse of real and
financial sector leads to major NPL problem

8GTLP and GTFP - The Opportunity
- A. Trade finance is the lifeblood of US14
trillion annual global commerce and one of the
most fundamental engines for global trade at all
stages of the supply chain, especially in
emerging markets. - Current Market Conditions Availability of trade
finance declining - Despite global slowdown, growing shortfall in
trade financing continues to constrain global
trade - Driven by scarcity of capital, increased costs
and liquidity premiums, heightened risk
perceptions, loss of market participants - Swiftly aggregating resources under simple and
efficient structures can enhance impact in the
global markets economies of scale and
timeliness and flexibility (in both setup and
wind down). - Global Trade Finance Program (GTFP) offers a
stand-by letter of credit, which is extended to
cover the trade finance risk commercial banks do
not want to take. - Global Trade Liquidity Program (GTLP) aims to
address increased risk and liquidity constraints
with a funded trade support program. -

earnings and an eroded capital base - The crisis poses major challenges for national
and global leaders and requires several

- avert devastating declines in economic activity
that would adversely and disproportionally impact
low-income groups - RF aims to address the capital shortfalls that
emerging market banks are likely to face over the
coming months as a result of the knock-on effects
of the global financial crisis, while generating

19Microfinance Enhancement Facility (MEF)
Opportunity
- Context
- Global microfinance sector reached US30 billion
in assets and 130 million clients. - 15 years of very successful growth exposed to
various types of crises - These were previously regional/country-wide
phenomena, which were easier to counterbalance.
However, The greater integration of microfinance
into the financial sector commercialization of
the industry 2 very necessary developments to
foster the rapid growth broad outreach of the
industry have drastically changed the
beneficial circumstances, exposing the industry
to new threats. - Impacts of the Financial Crisis
- Strong MFIs cannot tap commercial refinancing for
growth, either through loans, securitizations or
deposit mobilization. - Resources for refinancing are quickly drying up
locally and internationally. - Bank lines are being pulled and in some cases
deposits are being eroded. - Financings needs reach US1.8 billion through
