Financing Programs

Pooled Bond Program
Issuing bonds to finance projects enables local governments to access some of the lowest interest rates available. However, the high cost and complexity of a typical bond issue can often drive up costs into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

We have developed an innovative and cost-effective way to finance projects through municipal bonds that will allow you to decrease your costs dramatically.

The VML/VACo Finance Program allows you to partner with other localities from across the Commonwealth and issue bonds on a pooled basis. As a result,

  • Costs of issuance are shared
  • Volume discounts are achieved
  • All localities receive a AAA insured rating
  • The process is simplified and streamlined for all participants. Our application is only three pages long.

Commercial Paper Program
Commercial Paper is a proven form of financing, long used by some of the largest and most respected private companies and governmental entities in the nation. Commercial paper has a short maturity, typically 30 days, and may be continually rolled-over (“remarketed”) in order to fund longer-term projects. The result is an extremely low, variable interest rate.
