Excerpt:

OPIC supports a family of privately managed investment funds that may be available to provide important equity capital to projects in the Southeast Europe region. Eligible projects need to approach the fund managers directly to be considered for support. Five existing OPIC-supported equity funds with a total capitalization of over $747 million are presently authorized to invest in countries in the region.A new $150 million fund, to be managed by Soros Private Fund Management, is also authorized to make investments in the core nations of Southeast Europe, as well as in peripheral countries of the region including Turkey.

The most ambitious project in the housing sector undertaken by OPIC in 2002 was a $15 million loan guaranty to the Soros Economic Development Fund that will enable South Africa's National Urban Reconstruction and Housing Agency to finance the construction of 90,000 homes and associated infrastructure for lowincome families in South Africa.

First financing provided by the newly formed OPIC-assisted Southeast Europe Equity Fund managed by the Soros Equity Management LLC. The fund is the single largest private owner of recently privatized Macedonia Telecom.
