How the Loans Work

The LPO's loan process is designed to be efficient and transparent:

1. Pre-application Consultation:

• Potential borrowers are encouraged to contact the LPO's Outreach and Business Development team for a pre-application consultation.
• This consultation helps potential borrowers understand the application process and ensure their project aligns with the LPO's priorities.

2. Application Submission:

• The application process involves submitting detailed information about the project, including its technical feasibility, financial viability, and environmental impact.
• The LPO carefully reviews all applications and conducts due diligence to assess the project's risks and potential benefits.

3. Loan Approval and Closing:

• If approved, the LPO will work with the borrower to finalize the loan agreement and disburse the funds.
• The LPO will continue to monitor the project throughout its lifetime to ensure it meets performance expectations and adheres to all agreed-upon terms.
