Definition
放款 is a separable verb (离合词) meaning 'to make a loan' or 'to lend money', typically used in banking or finance contexts. The verb 放 and the noun 款 can split when you need to insert a measure word, amount, or duration between them, e.g., 放了一笔款 ('made a loan') or 放了三百万的款 ('lent 3 million'). You can also use it as a compound without splitting: 银行放款给企业.
