Panacea will use the DFC loan to expand its manufacturing capacity to reach approximately 70 million doses annually.</p><p>DFC is also working with Indian companies to bolster affordable housing and economic empowerment by expanding access to capital for women and other underrecognized communities. DCEO Biswal signed a ceremonial loan agreement for an up to $50 million loan to Vastu Housing Finance Corporation Limited to finance the expansion of its mortgage and home lending in India. This project is expected to provide affordable home loans to more than 2,200 Indians, more than 95 percent of which will support women as a sole borrower or co-borrower. Vastu will also provide roughly 1,000 loans to small businesses, the majority of which are expected to be owned or led by women.</p><p>India is the bedrock of DFC's engagement with the wider Indo-Pacific and the rest of the world.
