Pioneering a Sustainable Finance Model

Recognizing the financial hurdles facing farmers, founder Laimonas Noreika, leveraged his FinTech expertise to create HeavyFinance.

Regenerative farming rejuvenates soil and biodiversity, combatting climate change through carbon sequestration. Carbon credits are a cornerstone of HeavyFinance's sustainable efforts, creating new income avenues for farmers committed to reducing emissions.

Green Loans and the Article 9 Fund

Through green loans and with the new Article 9 fund, HeavyFinance provides farmers with the financial support needed to shift to eco-conscious farming. These initiatives offer favourable conditions for investments into greener agriculture, aligning with EU sustainability criteria to magnify their environmental and social impacts.

In 2024, HeavyFinance will amplify resources and education around sustainable farming, sharing knowledge and practices vital to ecological and financial health. As the company looks to secure institutional capital, its drive towards a substantial investment strategy promises to expand the reach and depth of green farming initiatives, marking a significant stride in sustainable agriculture.
