UCB, first French establishment of real estate credit, launched on June 26 its new green loan Good Deal Ecology.
In a social, regulatory and fiscal environment in France that is increasingly encouraging consumers to 'go green', UCB launched an environmentally friendly loan called "Bons Plans Ecologie".
It allows prospective client with a 'green project' -for example, building a new home with energy saving equipment- to combine their UCB building loan with an additional 1% loan of up to €6,000.
