Together, we achieve more! We are building an active network of market players, social organizations, and the government.

Qredits is the first organization in Europe to comply with the European Code of Good Conduct for Microfinance Providers.
Partners Qredits collaborates with
Collaboration with banks
Qredits works closely with banks in Aruba and Europe. We are a non-profit foundation. Our lending conditions differ from those of banks, allowing more entrepreneurs to qualify for credit to start or grow their businesses.
Funding partnersÂ
Qredits provides loans to entrepreneurs from our own balance sheet. This means we are in control and can make our own agreements with entrepreneurs regarding repayments, making us more flexible. We receive funding from various financial institutions.
These are our funding partners:
- EIB (European Investment Bank)
- EIF (European Investment Fund)
- CEB (Council of Europe Development Bank)
Collaboration with the government and education
To stimulate entrepreneurship, we work closely with the government and the educational sector. Together we develop new initiatives at national, provincial, and municipal levels.
- Ministry of Economic affairs, Communication, and Sustainable Development
