Green loan
Green Loan is a type of financing that enables farmers to use the proceeds for projects contributing to the environment. For investors, Green Loans give an opportunity to indirectly contribute to the generation of high-quality soil carbon credits, which are later sold on the Voluntary Carbon Market and receive part of the proceeds from their sale.

Main Terms
The principal will be repaid by the farmer in regular instalments over the span of 4 years in accordance with the repayment schedule.
120 hectares of land are included in the Green Loan program. It is estimated that a total of 1 105 carbon certificates will be generated in 5 years (based on a conservative estimation). Consequently, investors will receive below indicated portion of sales proceeds from every carbon certificate generated from the land of the project owner involved in the program;
- 60% of income received during the loan period;
- 40% of income received for the following year after the loan period.
It is expected that the first carbon certificates will be generated and sold in the second quarter of 2025. The exact return will depend on the amount of sequestered CO2 levels and the sale price of the carbon certificates.
If the project owner withdraws from the Carbon Credits Agreement, the project owner shall reimburse an annual interest rate as of 11%
Annualized return forecast
- Conservative scenario (€20 per carbon certificate): 19% IRR*
- Today's scenario (€35 per carbon certificate): 32,5% IRR*
- Optimistic scenario (€100 per carbon certificate): 89,1% IRR*
