BCI finances the agribusiness sector

BCI will participate in the 4th edition of Mozgrow, the largest meeting dedicated to potential operators in the agribusiness sector, and intends to present financing solutions for projects related to agriculture.

The agribusiness sector is crucial to the development of the national economy and access to financing, especially in the agricultural sector, is still a challenge.

At stake are several risks that hinder the injection of money by the bank in projects in the branch. To reverse the scenario, the BCI has created a financing line.

“BCI has been financing the agribusiness sector since 2001 in a specialized way. We have created a team to seek solutions outside the standard financing that the bank has available, this is because the financing lines for the productive sector present subsidized interest rates, which result from partnerships we have with other entities with the same purpose,” said Anésio Guambe, coordinator of the Specialized Business Office of BCI, quoted by País.

The bank, committed to agribusiness in Mozambique, will expose, in the fourth edition of Mozgrow, its products and services aimed at reducing the challenges of the sector.
“We have special credit lines designed and adjusted to the national context in terms of prices or interest rates. I’m referring to small producers, large companies, including for small and medium enterprises and associations,” says Guambe.

Aligned with the objective of consolidating the agriculture business in the country, the banking institution sees, in the largest national agribusiness fair, an opportunity to exchange ideas and financing solutions for the agribusiness sub-sector in Mozambique.

It should be noted that BCI announced, in 2018, the availability of 500 million Meticals, to finance national companies in the agribusiness sector.

BCI financia sector do agro-negócio

O BCI vai participar na 4ª Edição da Mozgrow, o maior encontro dedicado a potenciais operadores do sector do agro-negócio, e pretende apresentar soluções de financiamento aos projectos ligados à agricultura.

O sector do agro-negócio é determinante para o desenvolvimento da economia nacional e o acesso ao financiamento, principalmente no sector agrário, ainda constitui um desafio.

Em causa, estão vários riscos que travam a injecção de dinheiro por parte da banca em projectos do ramo. Para reverter o cenário, o BCI criou uma linha de financiamento.

“O BCI financia o sector de agro-negócio desde 2001 de forma especializada. Nós criamos uma equipa para buscar soluções fora do financiamento padrão que o banco tem à disposição, isso porque as linhas de financiamento para o sector produtivo apresentam taxas de juros bonificadas, que resultam de parcerias que temos com outras entidades com o mesmo propósito”, disse Anésio Guambe, coordenador do Gabinete de Negócio Especializado do BCI, citado pelo País.

O banco, comprometido com o agro-negócio em Moçambique, vai expor, na quarta edição da Mozgrow, os seus produtos e serviços com vista a reduzir os desafios do sector.

“Temos linhas de crédito especiais desenhadas e ajustadas para o contexto nacional em termos de preços ou taxas de juros. Refiro-me a pequenos produtores, grandes empresas, inclusive para pequenas e médias empresas e associações”, refere Guambe.

Alinhado com o objectivo de consolidar o negócio da agricultura no país, a instituição bancária vê, na maior feira nacional de agro-negócio, oportunidade para troca de ideias e soluções de financiamento para o subsector do agro-negócio em Moçambique.

Refira-se que o BCI anunciou, em 2018, a disponibilidade de 500 milhões de Meticais, para financiar empresas nacionais do sector do agro-negócio.

BCI reopens the first ATMs in Afung

Two BCI ATMs are operational since Sunday, June 26, in Afungi, district of Palma, in Cabo Delgado province. They are the first to reopen after the interruption of economic activity due to the military instability in the northern part of the country.

With these ATM booths, the BCI is once again assisting the populations of the Afungi peninsula region and the Quitunda community, a village built to resettle families from the oil and gas project perimeter in Palma. This is a concerted action with the strategic partner of Area 1.

Com estas cabines de ATM, o BCI passa a assistir, novamente, às populações da região da península de Afungi e da comunidade de Quitunda, uma vila construída para reassentar as famílias provenientes do perímetro do projecto de petróleo e gás em Palma. Trata-se de uma acção concertada com o parceiro estratégico da Área 1.

Pioneiro no distrito, o BCI foi o primeiro Banco a disponibilizar serviços financeiros em Palma, desde 2012, e durante largos anos a única Instituição Financeira naquele ponto, passando a ser parceiro privilegiado no âmbito do projecto de exploração de Gás, em toda a sua cadeia de valor.

Recorde-se que o BCI lidera, actualmente, nos principais indicadores de balanço: activos, depósitos, créditos, e constitui, com mais de 200 unidades de negócio e uma vasta rede de ATM e de POS, a maior rede comercial bancária do país.
