OP Revolving Credit Facility is a single-payment loan with which your company can balance out seasonal fluctuations or finance projects. Withdrawing the revolving credit facility does not require signing separate loan agreements when an agreement of the limit has been concluded.

The revolving credit facility is taken out for a maximum of 12 months and is paid off at maturity.

The account is a payment transaction account to which you can link all payment services and cards that your company needs. You can use the credit facility of the corporate account as an ordinary credit card – you do not need to make any separate withdrawal requests.

Where to get financing for your business?

You can apply for and get financing for your business from various sources.

As a rule, the cost of financing provided by a bank is lower than the cost of instant loans provided by other financiers. You will also get support from the experts of the bank. For this reason, we recommend that you examine the actual interest cost of instant loans.

What is corporate financing?

Businesses often need external financing for running their operations. They need financing for investments, growth, balancing seasonal fluctuation or purchasing machinery and equipment, for example.

OP provides financing solutions for all situations of your company.

For example, a corporate loan is well-suited to individual investments or other larger one-time purchases.

If your business needs financing for balancing seasonal fluctuation, you can apply for a corporate account with credit facility or a revolving credit facility so that you will have financing readily available when you need it.

For equipment purchase, you can use leasing, which means long-term hiring, and hire purchase. Factoring is a good option for improving your company’s cash and liquidity management.

Can I get financing from a bank for my new business?

To get bank financing for your new business, you will need to provide a business plan and a three-year budget plan. You will also need to provide collateral, the most common of which include real security or different types of guarantees.

If you are starting a new business and need a loan for it, the Start Guarantee granted by Finnvera, a specialised financing company owned by the State of Finland, helps new SMEs to obtain a corporate loan from OP for various investment and working capital needs.
