When state programs do not fit

EBRD business loan

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is an international development bank. It lends to Kazakh businesses directly or through partner banks. The rate is higher than under state programs, but industry requirements are softer. We suggest this option when state programs do not fit.

Why a EBRD loan is hard to get on your own

  • It is unclear how the bank wants the application to look

    Each program has its own submission rules, amounts and business requirements.

  • Declined without explanation

    Banks usually do not explain why they decline. You can apply again and again without knowing what to fix — and lose months.

  • Documents returned for revision

    Often the business plan is written as a formality and does not match the financial statements.

  • Not enough collateral

    And the conversation ends there. Yet a financing structure can be built that passes without collateral.

The bank assesses the application, but preparing it is not its job. That is what we do.

Questions about the program

How much does it cost?

A percentage of the approved amount, fixed in the contract. Document preparation is included. No prepayment.

Why not go to the bank myself?

You can. But a bank only assesses applications — it will not prepare one for you and usually will not explain why it declined. We choose the bank, package the project and remove the reasons for refusal before submission.

How long does it take?

Usually about one and a half months from the first conversation to the bank’s decision, depending on the program and the bank.

A bank already declined — is it worth trying?

Yes. 8 out of 10 clients who came to us after a bank refusal were approved.
