Summary: European Financial Stability Facility Jan 11
Standard & Poors, January 2011
Abstract

EFSF is a supranational entity incorporated in Luxembourg whose mandate is to provide loans to eurozone member countries facing difficulties in accessing capital markets. EFSF will extend such loans under individual Loan Facility Agreements with the borrowing eurozone members.
