Wing Bank and Oknha Kith Meng Promote $3 Million in Collateral-Free Loans to Transform Climate-Resilient Agriculture in Cambodia

Cambodia’s banking sector is becoming a major driver of green finance to strengthen resilience to climate change. In support of this mission, Wing Bank, in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries and with support from the Global Environment Facility through the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), has launched a major financing initiative to promote the adoption of climate-resilient technologies across Cambodia’s agricultural value chains.

To support the initiative, Wing Bank has made available a total credit facility of US$3 million, offering loans of up to US$200,000 each with no collateral required and no loan approval fees. The loans come with highly competitive interest rates and flexible repayment terms of up to 36 months for farmers, agricultural cooperatives and agribusinesses.

Som Thy Sen, Managing Director of Public Banking Services at Wing Bank, said the green financing would help improve farmers’ livelihoods, strengthen food security and contribute to building a more resilient national economy.

The initiative is currently being actively implemented in five target provinces: Prey Veng, Takeo, Kampong Thom, Kampong Chhnang and Battambang. In March 2026, Wing Bank also held workshops across these provinces to explain how to apply for loans and provide training in climate-smart agricultural techniques.

The financing will help farmers invest in climate-resilient technologies, including smart irrigation systems, renewable energy and post-harvest management systems, to reduce costs and sustainably increase productivity.
