LOS ANGELES -- 

TriLinc Global Impact Fund, LLC (“TriLinc Global Impact Fund” or “TGIF”) announced today that it recently acquired $330,263 of participations in a term loan facility, in Africa. The transaction details are summarized below.

TGIF is an impact investing company that provides growth-stage loans and trade finance to established small and medium enterprises (“SMEs”) primarily in developing economies where access to affordable capital is significantly limited. Impact investing is defined as investing with the specific objective of achieving a competitive financial return as well as creating positive, measurable impact in communities across the globe.

TGIF recently approved one transaction totaling $330,263 that meets TGIF’s requirements for underwriting, economic development, and societal advancement, as described below:

On August 5, 2021, TGIF funded $330,263 as part of an existing four-year term loan facility to a grain processor formed in the United States and operating in Uganda. Priced at 11.5%, this transaction is set to mature on June 30, 2025. The facility will support the borrower’s ability to provide financial liquidity to its core farming and grain trading operations.

“By extending financing to the grain processor, TGIF is demonstrating its continued commitment to businesses that have positive environmental and social impact in Sub-Saharan Africa,” said Gloria Nelund, CEO of TGIF. “More specifically, we are confident that this financing will further enhance the competitiveness of the grain processor and support the company’s steady growth trajectory during periods of limited capital availability.”
