Stimulate the creation of new businesses.

Help (starting) entrepreneurs make informed decisions about entrepreneurship.

Offer (starting) entrepreneurs more opportunities to start and sustain their businesses.

Enable (starting) entrepreneurs to achieve financial and economic independence.

Serve as a bridge for these (starting) entrepreneurs to transition into the regular financial sector.

Our core valuis

  • Social 

Qredits wants to contribute to society.  Our purpose is to stimulate entrepreneurship, not maximizing profits for our organization. Qredits wants to help people realize their dreams and if needed offer them a second chance.

Qredits in the Caribbean

In addition to the Netherlands, Qredits is also active in the Caribbean part of the Kingdom. Since 2015, we've been operating on Bonaire, followed by Aruba and St. Maarten (from where we also serve Saba and St. Eustatius). In 2018, we expanded to Curaçao. In the Caribbean, we provide loans, training, mentoring, and educational programs. This way, we stimulate entrepreneurship and make it accessible to every entrepreneur.

Impact in the Caribbean

The small scale of the islands ensures that our offices have a high level of brand recognition and our impact is significant. This allows us to work closely with local governments on all islands to promote the growth and innovation of entrepreneurship. For example, with the introduction of Agri-projects on Aruba and Bonaire, the large-scale rollout of BeYourOwnBoss in vocational schools on Aruba and Curaçao, and the establishment of six Small Business Academies on St. Maarten.
