About Investitionsbank des Landes Brandenburg

Investitionsbank des Landes Brandenburg (ILB) is the state development bank of Brandenburg that implements and administers public funding programs, acting as the central instrument for regional economic, housing, infrastructure and environmental policy rather than as a retail lender; it is publicly owned, headquartered in Potsdam, and operates by providing grants, subsidized loans, guarantees and equity instruments as well as by channeling EU and state structural funds to eligible recipients. ILB’s product range covers support for small and medium-sized enterprises, startups, municipal projects, housing construction and energy-efficiency or renewable-energy measures, and programs are delivered either directly or via cooperating commercial banks and intermediaries depending on the scheme. Eligibility rules, required documentation, expected processing times and co-financing requirements differ across programs; detailed program descriptions, application forms and annual reports are published on the bank’s website and provide the primary source of guidance for applicants. As a public development bank, ILB operates within the legal and budgetary framework set by the state and by EU regulations, and its activities are oriented toward implementing policy objectives rather than offering standard consumer banking services.
