Housing association De Alliantie and BNG have further strengthened their partnership. In August, financing for Stichting De Alliantie was increased from €100 million to €165 million. In addition, in May of this year, lending to De Alliantie Woonfonds B.V. increased to €100 million. Both financing arrangements will be used for the construction of mid-range rental homes.
The Alliantie Woonfonds was established in 2017 to add new-build homes for the mid-market segment. The housing association will use the loans to develop three projects, comprising a total of 227 homes and parking spaces. These will be completed in 2025. All projects have a BENG label (nearly energy-neutral buildings). The financing provided to Stichting De Alliantie will also be used for the construction of sustainable mid-range rental homes. These projects will be carried out in Amsterdam, Amersfoort and Almere, involving 84, 120 and 117 mid-range rental homes respectively. Jan Michiel Aeilkema, treasurer of De Alliantie: ‘De Alliantie is the largest social housing developer in the Netherlands. Every year, we add more than 1,000 homes to our portfolio. We are able to do this partly thanks to a partner such as BNG, a reliable and expert financier.’

With over 55,000 homes, De Alliantie is one of the largest housing associations in the Netherlands. The association focuses on households with modest incomes, with the majority of its housing stock available for this purpose. It also offers mid-range rental homes. Jeroen Tebbens, relationship manager at BNG: ‘With our financing, De Alliantie is working to reduce pressure on the housing market. These projects also contribute to making the housing sector more sustainable. BNG is proud to work with De Alliantie. In doing so, we are investing in the future of the Netherlands, which is what our bank stands for.’
