During this period, ECLOF continued consolidating its network to 13 countries, all of them in the developing world. The new strategic framework was implemented :
- strengthening local governance and client outreach ;
- deepening the relationship between ECLOF International and the network ;
- and actively managing social performance and innovating products and services.
The board of ECLOF International welcomed new representatives from the countries. All countries committed to highest professional standards and the mission of ECLOF through a Memorandum of Understanding. ECLOF International began to effectively address the funding and technical assistance needs of the network. New loan funding and technical assistance grants were provided to the network. While all of this was going on, there was no change in mission.
