JEREMIE Advantages • Upfront immediate disbursement upon the establishment of HF (possibility of generating interest on HF), • Lack of structural issues – resources have to be used at least once until 2015, then reinvested creating an evergreen support mechanism, • Ability to shift focus with regards to both intermediaries and instruments based on market conditions leading to improved absorption rates, • Improved risk management and monitoring of financial instruments supporting SME sector provided by HF Manager, • Leverage on ERDF resources at HF and intermediary level, • Comprehensive notification process, • Management cost of HF manager capped by regulation at 2% • Possibility to engage EIF as HF manager
Interim Report - Poland • Main Conclusions: • Lack of access to micro loans for start-ups • Limited access to finance for enterprises in their early stage of development (either through VC or debt) • Limited use of guarantee/counter-guarantee instruments (low leverage on public funds) • Problems with technology transfer • Plans for 2007 – 2013: • Limited share of revolving instruments • Lack of modern financial engineering products (convertible loans, mezzanine instruments)
