Freo
Freo is THE online credit supplier for clients, who are looking for a revolving credit or personal loan. Freo considers loans a very usual thing and with brand values simplicity, openness and mutuality, Freo gives new meaning to the concept of "lending".
Simplicity
Freo likes to keep it simple: no trimmings, but simple and transparent products.
Openness
Freo provides insight into her business by stating what her criteria and values are. She wants to take care that clients do not come to depend on her nor on the loan.
Mutuality
Negotiating a loan connects Freo with the client. They have a common interest.
The client takes out a loan to be independent and with the knowledge and experience as financial service provider, this loan should be fitted into the life of that client.
This is also in Freo's interest, because lending money also costs money and therefore this should be done very carefully. Continuity is the common interest. This means that Freo will be there in good times ánd in bad times.
Independer
Freo is a trade name of De Lage Landen and has been proclaimed best credit supplier in 2009 and 2010 according to investigations by Independer.nl.
Freo
Simply about lending.
