Economic stimulus financing
 
Accelerate your IT projects

Nearly US$5 billion in economic stimulus financing available worldwide

In today’s turbulent economic climate, governments around the world are implementing economic stimulus initiatives that include funding for IT projects that will spur economic growth and recovery. Most of these stimulus funds, however, won’t be disbursed to recipients for some time.

To help organizations bridge the gap while they await government funding and move ahead with IT projects, IBM Global Financing is making available up to US$5 billion in financing opportunities to credit-qualified clients worldwide. These funds will enable organizations to invest in 21st century infrastructure with low financing rates and an array of flexible payment options.

In Asia-Pacific, IBM will make up to $1 billion available to municipalities and businesses of all sizes to help them implement technology projects in key economic stimulus areas such as Smart Grid, Health Information Technology and Smart Transportation.

Don’t delay projects and wait for government funds to start flowing. Implement a financing solution today that can help accelerate your organization's smart infrastructure initiatives, preserve your cash and credit lines for other strategic, revenue-generating investments, and point you on a path to growth.
Stimulus financing benefits Financing options

Even during a recession, organizations must move forward to remain strategically flexible and viable in the marketplace—and prepare their IT infrastructures for an improved economy.

Specifically, stimulus financing enables you to:

  • Accelerate projects now, based on existing funds and anticipated future funding
  • Fund IT projects not covered by government stimulus allocations
  • Leverage flexible payment plans, fast approvals and a single periodic payment for hardware, software and services
  • Better manage cash flow for complex projects to match budget outlays with expected benefits
  • Obtain a structured line of credit to manage complex, long term engagements
