The players
Norfund
Norway's development finance institution that manages capital funds to support private sector growth in developing markets.
The details
Norfund manages the Investment Fund for Ukraine and supports enterprises through a combination of commercial loans and equity investments. To protect existing operations, the fund acquires minority stakes, allowing current business owners to maintain operational control. This strategy has already been applied to projects like the M10 Industrial Park in Lviv and the Horizon Capital Catalyst Fund.
