About the Financing Guide

The Financing Guide is an initiative of the Netherlands Chamber of Commerce KVK, together with the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs, the Dutch Banking Association (NVB), Stichting MKB Financiering (SME Financing Foundation), and the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO). This platform was set up to make it easier for smaller businesses to find financing and to give more insight into the financing market.

Independent platform

The Financing Guide is an independent and reliable platform on which entrepreneurs can find information about different types of lending money for their businesses. The large database of products and credit providers enables business owners to find the options best suited to their situation quickly and with ease. The platform helps entrepreneurs make good choices, so they can implement their business plans with the right support.
