SV Werder Bremen GmbH & Co KG aA have taken an important step forwards in covering the financial losses that have resulted from the coronavirus pandemic. The Green-Whites have received a commitment for working capital loans that total €20 million, which will be granted to the club by a local banking consortium. The loans will be secured by the assumption of a deficit guarantee by Bremer Aufbau-Bank GmbH (BAB) on behalf of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen. As a result of this, the liquidity of the club has been ensured for the current season. Werder will repay the sum with interest over the course of the next six years. One of the conditions for securing the state guarantee was a comprehensive investigation into the finances of the club, as is carried out for all companies that apply for this form of financial support.
