Agrocapital was created in 1992 through the joint efforts of the Bolivian government and USAID, with technical assistance provided by the "Agricultural Cooperative Development International" (ACDI). Originally intended to support farmers going through coca growing substitution, Agrocapital is now going far beyond this original focus. Agrocapital's objective is to become a "Fondo Financiero Privado" (FFP), supervised by the Superintendence of Banks, and is already complying with all formal reporting requirements. Agrocapital's main challenge is "to be the first rural financial institution in Bolivia firmly committed to contributing to the improvement of the society's standard of living." Hide
