ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS
Akiptan is a Native American Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) that provides loans and technical assistance to agriculture producers across Indian Country.
Akiptan offers a whole suite of services that include financing youth, start ups, operating costs and ownership.
Our CDFI takes it a step further and works with the client to assist with technical support as well as provide financial literacy training to help create a knowledgeable borrower.
Akiptan continues to have a record demand of applications and while this means that our style of financing and technical assistance is needed, it is also generating a longer waiting period during the application process. However, our staff is doing the best that they can to process all applications in a timely manner, while also making sure that borrowers continue to receive proper technical assistance and beneficial financing. Please know that the timeline is currently a few months out from application submission to the Loan Committee for review. If you have concerns about the timeline of your application.
