GlobalCorp Financial Services has officially secured US$15 million (approximately EGP 795 million) in financing from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD). This strategic funding is set to significantly strengthen GlobalCorp’s financial position. More importantly, it will drive the rapid expansion of its financing activities tailored specifically for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) across Egypt.
EBRD Senior Loan Structure and Financial Inclusion Goals
According to official project disclosures from the EBRD, the financing has been formally approved as a senior loan under the Bank’s Financial Intermediaries Framework. This facility serves a dual purpose: it strengthens GlobalCorp’s balance sheet while directly enabling the scaling of its leasing and factoring portfolio dedicated to Egyptian MSMEs.
By boosting liquidity for small businesses, the agreement directly supports Egypt’s overarching economic goals. It advances financial inclusion, creates new jobs, and fosters private sector growth in competitive market environments. Furthermore, this collaboration highlights the sustained confidence that international financial institutions place in GlobalCorp’s resilient business model.
“The proposed financing reflects the continued confidence of international financial institutions in GlobalCorp’s business model and its ability to expand within Egypt’s non-banking financial services sector”.

He further added that supporting small businesses remains the primary engine for national economic development:
