Swiss support adds another financing layer. First Phosphate has received a Letter of Support from Swiss Export Risk Insurance (SERV) for approximately US$212.5 million in potential financing tied to Swiss machinery, equipment, goods, and services for the Bégin-Lamarche mine and processing facility. The contemplated financing is based on an assumed US$250 million eligible Swiss export contract, with SERV prepared to consider financing 85% of the contract value.
European and G7 support is converging around the project. The SERV announcement follows EIFO’s earlier letter of intent for up to €170 million in guaranteed financing support, while the Canadian government’s G7 Critical Minerals Resilience and Production Alliance announcement also highlighted Danish support for the Bégin-Lamarche mine and Italian financial and industrial support for First Phosphate’s downstream phosphoric acid facility. Switzerland is not a G7 member, but SERV’s participation adds another significant European state-backed export finance institution to a project already receiving support through G7-related initiatives.
