OPIC Selects Inerrant Finance Private Limited as Originator in Enterprise Development Network

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) has selected Inerrant Finance Private Limited (IFL), a transaction advisory and management consulting company specializing in the structuring and implementation of infrastructure projects, to serve as an Originator for a growing alliance with the private sector designed to support small and medium enterprises (SMEs) expanding into emerging markets overseas.

The alliance, the Enterprise Development Network (EDN), is expanding the ability of OPIC – the U.S. government agency charged with facilitating U.S. private sector investment in emerging markets – to provide financing to SMEs doing business in developing countries.

Through the support of financial institutions, business consultants, associations, law firms and regional investment promotion agencies, EDN is designed to enhance SME access to OPIC products and services. By empowering such service providers, the network is resulting in more efficient, cost-effective delivery of services to American businesses.

IFL provides transaction advisory and management consulting services for projects and assignments in infrastructure development, project/infrastructure finance, public private partnerships, investment banking, risk management and information technology.  The firm focuses on the energy, transport and logistics, office and industrial, social and municipal services, mass urban public transport, and financial sectors.
