Key facts

How to apply

Finnvera financing usually travels together with your bank. For guarantees, start at the bank: it assesses the loan first, and the Finnvera guarantee covers part of its risk. It pays to ask your bank explicitly whether a Finnvera guarantee would change its answer.

Apply through Finnvera's online service with up-to-date financial statements and a realistic cash-flow projection. Finnvera assesses repayment ability — the plan matters more than collateral, but a credible repayment story is non-negotiable.

Check the current terms and fees on Finnvera's official pages before applying.
