The Industrial Development
Corporation (IDC) operates nationally, offering an extensive
range of financing facilities for small, medium and
large scale industries to assist entrepreneurs in the
establishment and expansion of economically viable manufacturing
concerns in South Africa. Although the share capital
of the IDC is held entirely by the South African government,
the Corporation operates independently. The most general
form of financing is by means of medium to long term
low interest rate loans but in certain cases the IDC
may also take equity in industrial enterprises. Furthermore,
general factory purpose buildings are made available
to industrialists on a lease basis. The IDC also offers
specific financing facilities across a wide range of
sectors.
