Green Development Guarantee
Bpifrance has structured a Garantie Verte offer through green compartments attached to several guarantee funds. The guaranteed share can reach 80% within the framework set by Bpifrance, but eligibility and the level granted depend on the project and the financing.
Garantie Développement Vert aims to make bank financing easier for projects contributing to the green transition. It secures part of the lender's risk; the company must check its eligibility for the Garantie Verte pathway and the guarantee compartment used.
