We provided legal support for the launch of Silva Finance, a new forest and farmland equity financing company.
About Silva Finance
Silva Finance offers loans for the growth of enterprises against pledges of woodland with forest stands or of agricultural land, providing financing opportunities tailored to small and medium-sized enterprises.
Silva Finance’s business model is oriented towards the comprehensive acquisition and development of Latvian capital, primarily forests and agricultural land, by providing accessible financing to enable faster growth of small and medium-sized enterprises in Latvia with local capital funding.
