The European Investment Fund guarantee

Micro loan benefits from a guarantee funded by the European Union under the Programme for Employment and Social Innovation (EaSI) and the European Fund for Strategic Investment (EFSI) set up under the Investment Plan for Europe. The purpose of EFSI is to help support financing and implementing productive investments in the European Union and to ensure increased access to financing.

  • Promote the availability of funding for vulnerable segments of the population wishing to set up or develop their own company.
  • Assist micro enterprises whose collateral is of insufficient value to be able to take out a regular loan.
  • Simplify financing solutions for developing companies.

Additional information about the programme is available on the websites of the European Investment Fund and the European Commission:
