In the case of loan funding, financial instruments address the capital needs of enterprises by issuing low interest rate loans or/and guarantees, as well as through micro financing. Such loans may provide either development capital (for investment in tangible or intangible assets) or working capital.
Accordingly, issued loans have favourable terms such as lower - than the market - interest rate, longer grace and repayment period. Additionally, participating banks request reduced collateral due to the guarantees or funds provided by public or EU institutions.
