The loans/leasing are provided with the opportunity of up 35% one-time cashback.

Eligible borrowers are green technology manufacturers, suppliers, or service providers including legal entities registered and operating in the Republic of Armenia, individual entrepreneurs, and individuals engaged in agricultural activities.

Within the framework of the EU4Business-EBRD credit line program, the purpose of the loan/leasing is the acquisition of fixed assets - vehicles, agricultural machinery and equipment, as well as construction works (excluding multiapartment buildings). Another purpose of the loan is the repayment of accounts payable arising from the acquisition of fixed assets. The cashback will be provided in the amount of up to 15% of the loan amount.
