In March 2010, the Petersburg Social Commercial Bank (PSCB) was awarded a line of credit from the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC), to be managed by World Business Capital (WBC).  As a condition of the line of credit, PSCB receives targeted technical assistance that aims to improve the bank’s operations, thus ensuring OPIC’s long-term investment.

FSVC’s technical assistance program is designed to support PSCB senior management’s objectives to broaden and deepen their bank staff’s technical capacity in several functional areas, particularly in SME lending operations.
