Mission Transaction Unit
DFC’s Mission Transaction Unit (MTU) works with USAID to identify access to finance challenges in developing countries and partners with local, regional, and international financial institutions and businesses to mobilize private investment to advance DFC’s and USAID’s development objectives. MTU can support transactions with all of DFC’s investment tools.
Portfolio for Impact and Innovation
In addition to traditional DFC financing, the agency's Portfolio for Impact and Innovation (PI2) program supports early-stage social enterprises with innovative solutions to challenges facing the developing world.
Defense Production Act
In response to the COVID-19 global crisis, DFC is seeking to strengthen and restore domestic industrial base capabilities through the Defense Production Act (DPA). An Executive Order from the President provides DFC the tools under the DPA to finance the domestic production of strategic resources needed to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak, and to strengthen any relevant domestic medical supply chains.
