Rebaza Alcázar counsels FMV on two loan financings
Rebaza Alcázar & de las Casas has counselled Fondo MiVivienda (FMV), as borrower, on a financing of two loans, one for 551.55 million soles (approx. USD $150m) and the other for USD $150m, both granted by JP Morgan Chase Bank and guaranteed by the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA).
Other firms advising on the transaction were Simpson Thacher & Barlett as advisor to FMV in New York, and Rodrigo Elias & Medrano and Norton Rose Fullbright as advisors to JP Morgan and MIGA in Peru and New York, respectively.

In addition, FMV intends to allocate 50% of the funds raised to finance mortgage loans for Peruvian women.
