More loans available to small businesses

More money is now available to the small business sector as the Government implements another phase of its economic stimulus package.

$250 million has been disbursed to Jamaica National Small Business Loans Limited from the Development Bank of Jamaica (DBJ) to on-lend to micro and small businesses.

This is part of the Government's stimulus package to assist the sector in the current financial crisis.

The first tranche of $125 million was received on Wednesday.

Borrowers will be charged 10% interest per year on the reducing balance, and are given three years to repay the loan.
