Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) is an
independent U.S. government agency whose mission is to mobilize
and facilitate the participation of U.S. private capital and
skills in the economic and social development of less developed
countries and areas, and countries in transition from non-market
to market economies. OPIC assists U.S. companies by
providing financing (from large structured finance to small
business loans), political risk insurance, and investment funds.
OPIC-supported funds are among the largest
providers of private equity capital to emerging markets. Since
1987, OPIC has committed (as of FY 2005) over $2.6B in
funding to 32 private equity funds.
