Guarantee fund

The guarantee fund supports development projects in villages and residential areas carried out by associations based in Janakkala by providing short-term guarantees to help secure interim financing, such as loans. The guarantee fund can be used when the project has been awarded retroactive EU funding, has a maximum duration of three (3) years, and benefits local residents and businesses.
