Classic Medium- or Long-Term Loan

A standard medium or long-term loan finances a company's long-term needs by spreading repayment over several years. It is not automatic support: approval depends on the bank's analysis of the project, the risk and the repayment capacity.

Productive investment is rarely financed from available cash alone. A medium or long-term business loan spreads the cost of equipment, works or another long-lived investment over several financial years. It is repayable bank financing, not a grant: the term, rate, security and repayment holiday must be negotiated with the lender according to the company's repayment capacity.

Who can apply

Companies seeking bank financing for a long-lived investment, subject to the lender accepting the application. Conditions vary with the activity, age, accounts and type of project.

Eligibility conditions

The lender reviews the amount requested, the own contribution, cash flows, debt, security and repayment capacity. Compare the total cost of credit, fees, insurance, early repayment terms and any repayment holiday.

What the scheme covers

Can finance long-lived assets or projects such as equipment, works or growth investments, according to the bank's lending policy. Financing working capital or day-to-day expenses may fall under other products.

Amount and funding terms

The source page states the following terms: credit from €50,000, over 2 to 15 years.

How to apply

Build a financing plan with quotes, your own contribution, a cash-flow forecast and a repayment schedule. Approach several lenders and ask for an offer detailing the rate, fees, security, term and total cost. Check whether a guaranteed loan or additional support could reduce the risk, without confusing these schemes with the loan itself.
