About the investment vehicle

The SME Loan Programme S.a.r.l, short for ‘Subordinated Loan Funds”, is a specialty fixed income investment vehicle that invests in subordinated loans to Dutch small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs and SMCs) through its various compartments. It was developed by Aegon Asset Management in close cooperation with the Dutch large banks (ABN AMRO, ING, and Rabobank). Banks play an important role in deal-sourcing. A significant part of the subordinated loans issued by the Subordinated Loan Funds benefit from a guarantee from the European Investment Fund (“EIF”).  By providing guarantees to the Subordinated Loan Funds, EIF enhances Dutch SME/SMC’s access to financing and stimulates economic growth in the Netherlands. EIF guarantees between 50% to 80% of credit losses on the principal amount of the subordinated loans that are eligible for an EIF guarantee.
