Guarantees | Finnvera

We guarantee that your business will develop and continue

Your company may use the guarantees we provide as collateral for credit and other liability commitments received from banks or other financiers. Finnvera complements the financial markets and does not compete as a financing provider with other financiers, but shares the risk inherent in the financing. The State of Finland is responsible for the guarantees granted by Finnvera. The names of our guarantee products indicate the business development stages for which they are intended.
