Growing sustainable business
Established at the initiative of the Bank of Lithuania, the State Investment Management Agency (VIVA) is responsible for managing the State Aid Fund for Business (the Fund), evaluating, selecting and supervising investments, managing risk, and ensuring the Fund earns a suitable return.
The Lithuanian state, represented by the Ministry of Finance, is the company’s sole shareholder.
VIVA’s main objective is to provide aid to large and medium-sized enterprises that face financial difficulties and to help ensure the sustainable performance of large and medium-sized companies and the vitality of the capital market.
The State Aid Fund for Business provides financial assistance to businesses via debt and investment instruments. Large and medium-sized enterprises may apply for loans or to obtain investments by issuing ordinary bonds. For systemic companies, the Fund may also invest by purchasing their shares or via other hybrid financial instruments.
Investor Relations
The State Investment Management Agency manages the State Aid Fund for Business (the Fund). The state invests in the Fund through UAB Valstybės Investicinis Kapitalas.
Currently, the state has invested €100 million in the Fund, with plans to additionally provide a state guarantee for up to €400 million of non-equity securities.
If needed, the Fund will also seek to attract institutional investors for investments of up to €500 million.
It will be possible to invest not only in the Fund but also in bonds with a state guarantee. When initially offered, the bonds will be distributed to professional investors.
