We require a detailed description of the project for which you are applying for the loan and information about your creditworthiness as the potential loan receiver. The more details and information you include, the faster we can process your application. We need all the requested attachments to support our decision-making process. In addition to our own credit process, we check the loan applicant’s identity and credit information from Suomen Asiakastieto Oy’s company information database.

LOAN APPLICATION TO THE MARKETPLACE
After approval in the credit process, your loan application will be published in our Corporate Loans marketplace. Your loan application will be valid for 60 days, during which investors can invest in the loan. You can check the status of your loan by logging in to the Corporate Loans service. After the loan is funded, we will contact you and you’ll be able to transfer the money.

RECEIVING THE LOAN MONEY
You can draw on your loan if an investment of at least 25% of your desired loan amount has been offered within the 60-day loan application period. Then, you have seven days to approve the loan offered to you and to confirm the loan agreement with your electronic signature through your e-bank account. When you have accepted the loan, you’ll receive the money (minus the origination fee) in your bank account within two bank days. If you do not accept or reject the loan within seven days, the loan application and the reserved investment funds will lapse.
