Financial Opportunities Linked to LEAF Marque Certification

Home / Financial Opportunities Linked to LEAF Marque Certification

New financial products and incentives are now available to LEAF Marque certified businesses, and those progressing towards certification, to support your journey toward more climate-positive, nature-friendly farming.

We are proud to be working with forward-thinking financial institutions such as HSBC, Oxbury, and Barclays, who understand that sustainability is smart business. These banks recognise LEAF Marque certification as a trusted, transparent and independently verified mark of sustainable farming excellence. In recognition of this, they now offer tailored financial solutions that support and reward farmers leading the transition to more sustainable practices and outcomes - including preferential lending terms, bespoke financial products, and transition support for LEAF Marque certified farms.

LEAF Marque certification doesn’t just open markets, it now opens doors to financial solutions that can help build business resilience.
