We’re doing our very best to support our customers and other ethical organisations during this difficult time. If you are an existing lending customer, please contact your Relationship Manager to discuss your circumstances.
A new debt finance programme, the Recovery Loan Scheme (RLS) 3, was announced by the Government and will come into effect shortly. Whilst we were accredited under the CBILS and original RLS schemes, we are not an accredited lender for RLS 3 at this moment in time. If you are looking to access this scheme, more information can be found on the British Business Bank website.
If you have a question regarding your existing CBILS or RLS facility with Triodos Bank, please contact your Relationship Manager.

Historically, smaller challenger banks such as Triodos had no option but to utilise one of the “big four” banks (NatWest Group, Lloyds, HSBC and Barclays) for payment clearing services.
So it is not unusual to see banks of Triodos’ size (or indeed some far bigger organisations) still utilising the “big four” clearing banks.
However, there is currently a real drive by the government, via the Payments Systems Regulator, to promote competition in the banking sector and to encourage innovation in payment systems.
This has resulted in a wider choice of clearing options (including alternative providers and/or direct clearing) now available to challenger banks.
While changing our clearing arrangements would be a very large undertaking we continue to review the options, remaining conscious of maintaining a high quality of service for all our customers.

As a result of the UK’s planned withdrawal from the European Union (also known as Brexit), Triodos has made some necessary changes in our set up as a bank. We have created a new subsidiary company, Triodos Bank UK Ltd, wholly owned by Triodos Bank N.V. The new structure came into effect on 1 May 2019. Read more about Triodos Bank UK's change of legal structure.

Yes, Triodos Bank is registered with the Lending Standards Board and adheres to the Standards of Lending Practice.
This voluntary code of practice sets standards for financial institutions to follow when they are dealing with their personal and small business customers in the United Kingdom.

We have now developed a policy for lending to businesses involved in tourism (accommodation providers / campsites / visitor attractions / recreation).
We are pleased to be working in conjunction with the Green Tourism . Green Tourism is the national sustainable tourism certification scheme for the UK, and businesses opting to join Green Tourism are assessed by a qualified grading advisor against a rigorous set of criteria, covering a range of areas, like energy and water efficiency, waste management and biodiversity. Businesses are awarded a business Bronze, Silver or Gold accreditation depending on the outcome of their assessment.
It is a condition of any lending (loan or overdraft) that a business is accredited to a minimum standard of Silver within a specified period of the facility being made available

‘Local’ is a difficult area for us to define and monitor. We require all our producers to be organic, but are currently introducing the Soil Association standard for catering businesses – which allows a mix of local and organic foods. We’re unlikely to accept a project purely on the basis of local.
Yes, we do have projects that are part certified. Our general rule of thumb is that more than 70% of the business is organic.
