Orientation

Seven packs, as data.

Dutch: a bank or KvK-style business plan and Qredits. German: Gründungszuschuss (the expert opinion), KfW Startgeld, ERP-Gründerkredit and EXIST. English: an investor pack. Each lists the required sections, the statements and how detailed they must be, a forms checklist (names only, no form numbers) and the numeric rules.

Questions

About the checks.

Is it advice?

No. It calculates from your numbers and checks against published expectations. A lender or agency decides by its own rules, and you should check the details with them. Every threshold in a lender pack is a stand-in to verify.
