What are our lending Products?

At IWP, we offer flexible financial products designed to reduce risk and increase confidence. Each product is modular — we can utilize our products individually or stack them alongside each other to build custom, safer and stronger funding solutions tailored to a project’s needs.

  • 80% of an IWP structured loan backed-insured by our internal resources — and when needed, state and federal program incentives — to reduce the risk on the loan up to $5M. That gives us the confidence to fund projects that need a little more support to get moving.

    Benefit: If the borrower can’t pay, up to 80% is covered.All involved feel safer doing the deal.

  • This lending solution allows investors interested in vetted entertainment deals or creators with cash already committed to their project to convert that investment into an IWP loan that’s connected to one or more of our lending products — like Insure 80 or Collateral Boost.

    Benefit: The investment becomes part of a secured loan structure with fixed returns, faster payback than waiting on backend profits, and clear repayment terms — ideal for investors seeking steady income with reduced risk

  • This lending solution boosts the collateral behind the loan — starting at 20% — by adding cash, grants, government incentives, or investor funds to strengthen the deal. We layer these assets so projects with limited traditional collateral can still qualify and keep moving.

    Benefit: Makes your deal stronger without giving up equity.

    Together, these protections provide up to 100% loan coverage:

    • Government-backed repayment protection (50%–100%)

    • Completion Bond – Ensures on-time, on-budget project delivery

    • Keyman Insurance Policy – Covers the loss of essential talent

    • Cash Value via Keyman Policy – Secures the final 20% when needed

    • Verified Repayment Sources – No capital deployed until repayment sources are confirmed

    • SPV Structure + Milestone Disbursement – Bonded project entity with controlled fund release

  • This lending solution strengthens a deal when repayment isn’t strong enough on its own. If a project has a key-person policy, IWP contributes our own funds into the policy’s cash value. That cash value becomes collateral—a safety net for the loan. If there’s a default, the money built up in the policy can be used to cover the shortfall.

    Benefit:An additional layer of security added to the existing credit enhancements. IWP covers the cost, so you don’t have to.

    • This lending solution is designed for projects under $250,000 that need funding fast. If the basics are in place — like contracts, budgets, and a clear plan — we can approve and deploy capital in 30 days or less. This product is primarily focused on empowering creators and essential support-role businesses like craft services, wardrobe, rentals, and other production services that keep the industry running.

      Benefit: Quick access to capital
