FUnding for Local Ag Lending Co-Ops
As a wholesale lender, Farm Credit Bank of Texas delivers funding to the 13 retail lending cooperatives that own the bank, as well as two Other Financing Institutions. These funds come from the sale of highly rated Farm Credit bonds and notes.
In turn, our 13 affiliated lending co-ops in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas make loans to their borrowers – farmers, ranchers, aquatic harvesters, agribusiness firms, rural landowners and rural homeowners.
CREDIT EXPERTISE AND SUPPORT
In addition, we provide our affiliated lending co-ops with credit expertise, centralized information technology, accounting systems and human resource services to help lower their operating costs.
Capital Markets financing
That’s not all. We also participate with other lenders in large capital markets loans to food, agribusiness, energy, rural utility and rural telecommunications companies. These alliances with other lenders allow us to offer financial solutions for even the largest rural customers.
