Maturity Linked Funding

DESCRIPTION:

  • Maturity linked funding provides a lender with a source of funds for a length of time that matches the maturity of the qualifying loan.

  • In times of heavy loan demand, maturity linked funds ensure a source of available loan funds.

QUALIFICATION AND USE CRITERIA:

  • The project must produce public benefits such as creating or retaining jobs.
  • Loan proceeds must be used for specific eligible purposes such as fixed asset financing, working capital, etc.
  • Interest rate caps may apply, usually in the form of limits on markups over the cost of the funds.
