Funding Options Launches a Green Finance Marketplace for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs)
Green Finance | July 09, 2021
Funding Options, a business finance platform, has launched a Green Finance marketplace. This initiative reaffirms Funding Options' commitment to driving sustainability in the SME lending market by connecting businesses to the funding they require to achieve net-zero. The Green Finance marketplace will help to increase transparency and awareness of the funding options available to help SMEs, with financial products increasingly rewarding businesses that actively seek to reduce their carbon footprint.
Companies can access funding through the Green Finance marketplace to help them buy ‘green assets,' such as solar panels or clean vehicles. Lenders will also be considered for ‘green businesses’ that demonstrate strong environmental credentials, such as those engaged in renewable, low/zero carbon, or sustainable activities. Furthermore, the platform will connect ‘green businesses' – those that provide verifiably sustainable products, services, or are working on a green project – with the appropriate funding partner.
