40 Things you need to know and have before applying for Presidential Palliative 1Million to 1Billion Loan in Nigeria in 2024.
As part of the Presidential Palliative Programme, the Federal Government of Nigeria has announced the kick-off of two programmes targeted at alleviating the impact of the fuel subsidy removal – the Presidential Conditional Grant Programme and the Presidential Palliative Loan Programme.
The Presidential Palliative Loan Programme will allocate N75 billion to Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) across various sectors and an additional N75 billion specifically to manufacturers. The loan, provided at a single-digit interest rate of 9% per annum, aims to support businesses in navigating the subsidy removal impact.
MSMEs can access loan facilities up to N1 million with a repayment period of three years, while manufacturers can access up to N1 billion for working capital, with a repayment period of one year for working capital or five years for the purchase of machinery and equipment.
Interested MSMEs and manufacturers can submit their loan applications through the designated portal. The funds will be accessed through their respective banks, with applicants required to meet the risk assessment criteria set by their banks.
In line with its commitment to fostering economic development, entrepreneurship, and financial empowerment, the Federal Government anticipates that these initiatives will stimulate entrepreneurship and contribute to job creation.
