The proposed investment entails a local currency-denominated (Mexican Pesos) senior loan of up to US$30 million equivalent in MXN to IENTC S. de R.L. de C.V. (IENTC or the Company) to finance the expansion of its fiber-optic backbone and metro network, enhancing capacity, connectivity and redundancy across Mexico (the “Project”).
Sponsor: IENTC, established in 2011, is a fast-growing wholesale and B2B broadband operator based in Queretaro, Mexico that designs, builds, owns, and operates fiber backbone and metro networks, complemented by indefeasible rights of use on third-party dark fiber.
IENTC genera ingresos locales en MXN pero financia expansión de fibra cuya mayor parte del capex (equipos, componentes y tránsito internacional) suele facturarse en USD. Aunque IFC propone un préstamo denominado en MXN, la compañía enfrenta riesgo de apreciable impacto por depreciación del peso en el costo en MXN de pagos a proveedores y en la liquidez requerida para desembolsos y garantías. El riesgo concreto es un descalce moneda/timing entre pagos de capex en USD y flujo operativo en MXN durante la construcción.
Strip de forwards USD/MXN a 12–24 meses alineado con el calendario de capex y pagos a proveedores; complementar con collars de opciones para limitar coste en caso de apreciación favorable del MXN y preservar upside.

Borrador de outreach (generado por el motor)Hi [Name], I work with institutional FX advisory for EM telecoms. I saw IFC’s IENTC Broadband project (local‑currency loan up to US$30m) and noted potential USD exposure from imported network capex and international transit costs. We can structure a USD/MXN hedging package matched to your capex/payments schedule to protect margins. Would you have 15 minutes for a quick call to review timing and a preliminary plan?

(“Enlight” or the “Company”) is the leading distributed generation (DG) and battery energy storage systems (BESS) provider for commercial and industrial (C&I) customers in Mexico, serving a diversified base of industrial and commercial clients nationwide.IFC proposes to finance the design, engineering, construction, installation, and operation of a portfolio of solar DG and BESS projects for an aggregate installed capacity of 106 MWp of solar DG and 293 MWh of BESS.
Sponsor: Enlight is jointly owned by the Ahumada family including the Company’s founders and management team, and Illuminent Capital Partners, LLC, a U.S.-based family office, both long-term investors supporting the Company’s growth.
Enlight desarrolla un portafolio de solar DG y BESS en México que genera ingresos en MXN por ventas a clientes C&I, mientras que gran parte del capex, equipos y la posible financiación (IFC / deuda de proyecto) estarán denominados en USD. Esto crea riesgo de descalce FX entre ingresos en pesos y servicio de deuda / desembolsos en dólares, con exposición concentrada en la fase de construcción y primeros años de operación.
