When applying for a lending facility with Triodos, you will be required to demonstrate how your organisation and the purpose for which you are seeking finance will have a positive impact. This impact, alongside your organisation’s values and mission, will be reviewed in detail by our team. We will only provide a loan where it is deemed that your mission and values align with our own and that the finance will provide positive benefit for people and planet.
At Triodos Bank, we only lend to businesses and organisations who are delivering a positive impact. All the loans that we make are to be used by businesses and projects that provide social, cultural or environmental benefits.
Triodos is accountable to our savers and investors, who choose to bank with us because they want their money to be used to change the world for the better. We publish details of every single organisation that we lend to on our website so they can see exactly how we’re using their money.
Please be as thorough as possible when providing this supporting information to ensure we are able to establish this mission fit.
It is important to note that we do not lend to organisations whose impact is deemed ‘neutral’ – i.e. neither positive nor negative. In addition, we exclude organisations who do not meet our minimum standards.
