What are CEO Fee-Based Loans?
Some clients’ beliefs limit the types of financial products that they are willing to use.
For these clients, CEO offers a fee-based alternative to our traditional interest-bearing loan products. CEO does not assert whether the Fee-based loans and terms comply with any specific religious doctrine.
The loan is booked at no interest (0% APR.) By default, the initial fee is financed and is added to the borrower’s original principal balance.
Who can apply?
Any individuals engaged with IRC’s related economic development programs.
- Applicants must complete training on credit.
- CEO also requests applicants engage in a 1:1 “Financial Fitness” check-in with a Financial Coach before or during the application process.
It is important to note that being eligible to apply for a loan is very different than being approved for a loan. Please review the document titled How CEO Makes Loan Decisions for important information on getting approved for a CEO loan.

- CEO is a non-profit charitable organization. CEO exists only to enhance the financial health of its borrowers; all interest and fees collected are used to support its mission.
- All eligibility terms for CEO’s traditional interest-bearing loans still apply to the Fee-Based alternative loans.
- For Auto Loans, any additional funds more than the total vehicle price will be disbursed directly to the borrower, making the loan equal to one of the Fee-Based Auto loan options.

- If approved, we will offer one of our fee-based loan options where you can confirm the loan amount and term requested.
