Healthcare Network Loan
The Healthcare Network Loan Plan is designed for hospitals, clinics, and healthcare providers that want to expand, modernize, or integrate networks of facilities across cities, regions, or nationwide. Access to healthcare is one of the most pressing global challenges, and expanding networks ensures better service delivery, improved patient outcomes, and stronger healthcare systems.
This financing solution supports projects ranging from building new hospitals and clinics, upgrading diagnostic centers, acquiring medical equipment, integrating IT health systems, to rolling out telemedicine platforms.
Denominated in United States Dollars (USD), the loan aligns with international procurement of medical technology, pharmaceuticals, and specialized healthcare expertise.
2. Eligibility Criteria
Borrowers must demonstrate readiness to deliver safe, reliable, and compliant healthcare expansion projects.
Borrower Profile:

3. Loan Structure and Terms
The Healthcare Network Loan recognizes that health facilities require large upfront investment and long setup times.

Tenor: Medium- to long-term (5–10 years) to accommodate the time needed to stabilize operations.

4. Repayment Analysis (Illustrative)
Healthcare facilities often take 1–2 years to reach full operational capacity. To support this:
