HBOR describes it as the largest financing framework the two institutions have agreed so far for this segment of the economy. The agreement was signed in Zagreb ahead of the conference Places to Stay, Regions to Grow: Investing in Croatia, organised by the EIB Group and the European Commission Representation in Croatia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hrvoje \u010cuvalo, President of the HBOR Management Board, said it was particularly important that at least 30 percent of the funds would go to green projects. EIB Vice-President Marko Primorac said the cooperation with HBOR makes it easier for entrepreneurs to carry out their investment plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the EIB project register, the operation is listed as HBOR Croatia Loan for SMEs, an intermediated loan for multiple final beneficiaries with a dedicated window for climate action and environmental sustainability. The EIB states that the project contributes fully to economic and social cohesion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HBOR and the EIB have worked together for 25 years. Over that period they have signed 31 agreements worth almost EUR 4.5 billion in total.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who the money is for<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The funds are intended for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in Croatia, meaning companies with fewer than 250 employees. They will finance new investment, business modernisation, the adoption of new technologies, stronger competitiveness and the creation and preservation of jobs. This is long-term investment financing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The announcements do not single out sectors or regions and do not mention larger companies. The exact list of eligible borrowers and investments will be known once HBOR publishes the terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How businesses will be able to apply<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Applications do not go to the EIB. The EIB lends to HBOR, and HBOR passes the money on to businesses in two ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Direct HBOR loans.<\/strong> The application is submitted to HBOR.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Loans through commercial banks.<\/strong> The application is submitted to a bank taking part in the programme.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HBOR will set out in the terms which channel applies to which amount or purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The funds arrive at a time of rising interest rates. The European Central Bank raised its deposit rate in June and September 2026 and kept it at 2.5% on 29 October. Markets expect another increase in December, and euro area inflation rose to 4.0% in October according to Eurostat&#8217;s flash estimate. When bank loans become more expensive, long-term sources such as EIB funds can lower the total cost of an investment. You can compare an HBOR loan with a bank loan for your amount and term in our <a href=\"https:\/\/omniasolutions.hr\/en\/hbor-loan-calculator-hbor-vs-bank\/\">HBOR loan calculator<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the 30% for green projects means<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At least 30% of the amount, at least EUR 90 million of the first tranche, is earmarked for projects that contribute to climate goals, energy efficiency and environmental protection. Such investments could include a solar power plant for own consumption, a heat pump, replacing machines with more energy-efficient ones, renovating a production building or reducing waste in production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How HBOR will assess the green component will be clear from the terms. From experience with other programmes, it helps to have an energy audit or a calculation of energy savings and emission reductions ready in advance. The EIB also requires final beneficiaries to comply with national and EU environmental and social legislation. For energy efficiency investments there is already a dedicated <a href=\"https:\/\/omniasolutions.hr\/en\/hbor-energy-efficiency-loan-2026\/\">HBOR energy efficiency loan<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is not yet known<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The interest rate and whether it is fixed or variable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The minimum and maximum loan amount.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The repayment period and the length of the grace period.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The share of the investment the loan can cover.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which commercial banks take part.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When applications open.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whether the funds will go into existing HBOR programmes or a new programme.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will update this article once HBOR publishes the terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to prepare now<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Describe the investment: what you are buying or building, how much it costs and when it starts.
