Why accreditation is an investment
Many larger clients and tenders require certifications — quality, safety, environmental — before they'll work with you. Achieving them costs money and time, but they open doors to contracts worth far more.
Fund the process
A working-capital facility funds the certification work — consultancy, systems, audits — so cash timing doesn't hold back a step that unlocks bigger business. It repays from the contracts it enables.
Target the right credentials
Pursue the accreditations your target clients actually require, not every badge available. Check the likely return on the return-on-borrowing calculator before committing.
What it means for you
Credicorp lends to your company, not to you personally, and takes no personal guarantee. See business loans or apply online when the numbers work.
Frequently asked questions
Can I finance getting certified or accredited?

Is accreditation worth borrowing for?
When it's required to win clients or tenders worth far more than it costs, yes. Target the credentials your customers actually demand and check the likely return before you invest.
