Yes, Triodos Bank is registered with the Lending Standards Board and adheres to the Standards of Lending Practice.

This voluntary code of practice sets standards for financial institutions to follow when they are dealing with their personal and small business customers in the United Kingdom. It provides valuable protection for customers and explains how firms are expected to deal with them day-to-day and in times of financial difficulties.

For more information, you can read about our commitment to business and charity customers, and learn more about the Standards of Lending Practice on the Lending Standards Board website.

We would consider a combination of selling alongside holding for long-term rental, or complete hold for rental.

Yes, we see this as part of our commitment to supporting affordable housing projects. Learn more about lending for housing, including co-housing, community-led housing and housing associations.

Triodos Bank offers a fully unadvised service and you will have to determine the amount you require independently. We recommend you consult an independent financial adviser if you need help to determine your financial requirements.

‘Local’ is a difficult area for us to define and monitor. We require all our producers to be organic, but are currently introducing the Soil Association standard for catering businesses – which allows a mix of local and organic foods. We’re unlikely to accept a project purely on the basis of local.

For loans over £1 million, we will respond to your request within 5 days. See our guide to find out what you can expect when applying for a business loan or overdraft with Triodos Bank.

Currently, we do not accept unsecured loans. Please refer to our product summaries for the types of security we will accept for different types of borrowing.

LTV requirements are standardised across our products up to £1,000,000. Please refer to our product overview document.

See our product lending overview document for more information.

You will be required to pay your solicitors directly. Any charges from Triodos directly will be outlined in your Heads of Terms. For guidance, please see our Business Lending Tariff.
