For whom is start-up loan designed?The start-up loan with KredEx guarantee is suitable for starting enterprises and those having operated for up to three years for financing of investments and operating capital. The start-up loan helps if there are difficulties in starting a company due to a lack of start-up capital, and there are no sufficient guarantees for bank loans or operational history. Unlike a conventional bank loan, fewer guarantees are required from an entrepreneur in the event of a start-up loan. Generally, the personal surety of the physical owners of the loan recipient is sufficient to guarantee the loan. The personal liability of the surety provider is 25% of the loan amount, if the loan is used for the intended purpose.
