financing
Securing purchase funds
Financing is the act of providing money for a purchase or project, typically through loans or credit arrangements.
When you buy a car or home with borrowed money rather than paying cash upfront, you're financing it: We got financing through the dealership, The bank approved our financing.
Financing also refers to the funds themselves or the terms of such arrangements: The financing fell through at the last minute.
