With our renewed vision of becoming the bank of economic reactivation and the green bank of Latin America and the Caribbean, in March 2022 CAF's Shareholders' Meeting approved the largest capitalization in the history of the institution, for USD 7,000 million, which will allow us to double the portfolio by 2030.

Investor Presentation

In 2022, CAF approved 305 operations for a total of $14.1 billion, 6.9% above what was approved in 2021. Of these, $2 billion were used to finance investment programs and projects aligned with the long-term development strategies of the countries of the region.

The approved operations were located in the sector of productive infrastructure, mainly energy, transport, and telecommunications ($1.7 billion), as well as in the sectors linked to sustainable development in the region, such as water and sanitation, education, health, and urban development ($2.2 billion), which reflects CAF’s interest in supporting the most vulnerable sectors of the countries.

Within the framework of CAF’s energy transition support strategy, worth noting is the approval of a $300 million loan to Pan American Energy, Argentina Branch (PAE) to fund green projects, provide greater funds and liquidity to the firm’s supplier chain and to contribute to Argentine energy security with an emphasis on gas as a transition fuel; and a line of credit to Gas Natural de Lima y Callao S.A. (Cálidda) for $150 million for the partial financing of the investment plan that mainly includes the expansion and maintenance works of the pipeline network of the residential consumer gas system of Lima and Callao in Peru.

On the other hand, the institution’s support for territorial development with the approval of the Colombian Prosperity Program stands out, as an opportunity for the financing of operations in favor of territorial entities, its decentralized entities, and public service providers, with national guarantee, for $1.2 billion to be implemented over five years.

Throughout 2022, CAF’s commitment to driving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) was reflected in approved operations that contributed directly and indirectly to the fulfillment of up to 16 SDGs.
