Notice of Request for Information

 

Procurement of Transaction Advisory Services

Ref No: RFI-IND2-FMDP-2023-12

 

The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) awards eligible countries with fixed-amount, fixed-term (five year) grants (“compacts”) for a defined set of projects aimed at reducing poverty through economic growth (the Program). Country ownership of compacts and programs is a core part of MCC’s model and influences a great deal of MCC’s work. MCC supports country ownership through the establishment of a local team of professionals for each compact, typically called a “Millennium Challenge Account” or “MCA”, charged with compact implementation. The MCA is overseen locally by a Board of Directors.

 

The United States of America, acting through the Millennium Challenge Corporation (“MCC”) and the Government of Indonesia (the “Government”) have entered into a Compact for Millennium Challenge Account assistance to help facilitate poverty reduction through economic growth in Indonesia in the amount of approximately Six-Hundred and Forty-Nine Million Dollars (US $649) (“MCC Funding”).

 

The Program includes the following projects:

 

  1. The Advancing Transport and Logistics Accessibility Services (“ATLAS”) Project which aims to improve transport planning and preparation in the target provinces, responding to the root cause of inadequate infrastructure project preparation.
  2. The Financial Markets Development Project (“FMDP”) is designed to reach financial close on transactions using structured finance, including participation by institutional investors and with a focus on local currency transactions, which will address the root causes of underdeveloped project financing market and capital markets.
  3. The Access to Finance for Women-owned / Micro-, Small and Medium Enterprises Project (“MSME Finance Project) aims to increase lending by formal financial service providers to MSMEs and W/MSMEs in the target provinces to support their businesses, which will address the root causes of information asymmetry and borrowers’ constraints.
