Developmental impact

COFIDES favours the internationalization of the Spanish economy by financing projects involving Spanish interests in which economic development in host countries and investment profitability are compatible with the defence of the natural and social environments.

To this end, the company strives to proactively identify environmentally beneficial operations, pays particular attention to the flexible project mechanisms under the Kyoto Protocol  and has designed a tool (Operation Impact Rating) that, among others, helps assess project impact on target country development.
