CEDLI Loan-to-Lenders Program

The purpose of CEDLI's Loan-to-Lenders Program is to support and work in partnerships with the established network of non profit and public sector lending programs in California to address credit needs of hard to reach borrowers and smaller loan sizes.

Under the Loan-to-Lenders Program, CEDLI provides credit to intermediary lenders, including community development Financial institutions, multibank CDC's and other non-bank private and public lenders which in turn re-lend CEDLI's funds to a range of end borrowers, including but not limited to micro-enterprises, small businesses, community development organizations, and other borrowers which are not eligible for intermediaries with the capacity and experience to assume the limited financial liability associated with re-lending CEDLI funds.
