financiert

Financiert is a Dutch verb form derived from financieren, meaning to finance. In ordinary usage it appears as the present tense form for third person singular (he/she/it finances) and is commonly found in sentences such as De organisatie financiert het project. The form indicates that the subject provides funding or support for a project, program, or initiative.

Etymology and usage: The word comes from the Dutch verb financieren, which is itself borrowed from French and Latin roots related to money and funding. Financiert is used across business, government, and nonprofit contexts to describe active funding or underwriting of activities. Related terms include financier and financiering (financing), and gefinancierd, the past participle meaning financed or funded.

Past participle and related forms: The past participle of financieren is gefinancierd, which is used to describe something that has been financed. For example, Het project is gefinancierd door de overheid. Dutch also distinguishes other related forms, such as financieren (the infinitive) and gefinancierd (past participle), while similar-sounding forms exist in related Germanic languages with orthographic differences, for instance finanziert in German meaning financed.

See also and related concepts: Financing, funding, subsidies, and public-private partnerships are common domains where finanziers are discussed. The term is often found in project proposals, annual reports, and policy documents to indicate sources of funding or financial support.

Overall: Financiert is a core Dutch term used to express that funding is being provided by a subject. It is part of a broader family of words describing financial backing, from the act of financing to the status of being funded.
