In Budget 2018, Canada allocated over CAD $657.7 million to deliver the Sovereign Loans Program (SLP). Through this five-year pilot program (2019 - 2024), we provided low-interest sovereign loans, primarily to middle-income countries, to support their investments in poverty reduction. Through the SLP, Canada aims to generate social, economic and environmental outcomes that would not occur in the absence of sovereign lending. All initiatives must contribute measurably to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and be aligned with at least one of the six action areas of Canada’s Feminist International Assistance Policy. Lending decisions were made with the economic development and welfare of the recipient as the main condition of lending.
