Common Wealth Revolving Loan Fund (CWRLF), founded in 1987, is a non-profit community development financial institution whose purpose is to lend money to employee-owned companies or co-ops for expansion, facilities, machinery and equipment, vehicles, and working capital or for employee-buyouts. CWRLF serves borrowers located in Ohio and the nearby areas of contiguous states. The OEOC has been administering the Loan Fund since 2004. Currently, CWRLF can make direct loans to borrowers for amounts up to $80,000 and, with our partners, a single borrower can obtain loans for amounts up to a total of $500,000. As the size of the Loan Fund grows, these loan limits will increase. Loan interest rates will be competitive and, most likely, advantageous to borrowers.
