This type of loan is often used for large projects or investments that require more funding than one lender can provide.
A participation loan is a type of loan where multiple lenders contribute funds to a borrower. Each lender has a percentage of ownership in the loan and shares in the risk and profits.
For example, if a borrower needs $100,000, two lenders may each contribute $50,000 to the loan. The borrower would then make payments to both lenders based on their percentage of ownership.
