Description

The funding program Liquidity Assistance of the State of Bremen serves to stabilize and strengthen the economic conditions of companies whose projects are at risk due to the cautious lending practices of private financial institutions. Financing gaps are closed in the form of a loan, thereby ensuring operational capability and balance sheet strength. The assistance extends across all sectors and particularly supports measures that create or secure jobs within the State of Bremen. Loan amounts of up to 1 million euros are available, with terms and interest rates tailored to the individual requirements of each project. Since applications can be submitted continuously, companies can request support at any time in case of acute liquidity needs.

Eligible applicants include small and medium-sized enterprises according to the EU SME definition, as well as medium-sized companies predominantly privately owned with a group turnover of up to 500 million euros. A prerequisite is the location of the registered office or a branch in the State of Bremen, as well as the creation or securing of jobs within the funding area. Bremer Aufbau-Bank GmbH acts as the house bank and funding institution, handling the applications and ensuring attractive refinancing conditions through the statutory liability of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen. These directly contribute to favorable terms and prompt approval. Thus, the program offers a practical solution to minimize economic risks and promote sustainable growth in the region.
