Entrepreneurs and small enterprises will be able to take out loans of up to RSD 30 million, whereas the maximum size of a loan for medium-sized enterprises is RSD 200 million.
Loans will be made in dinars and with a foreign currency clause, and the state will subsidize 5 percent of interest for these loans, the Ministry of Finance said in a release.
The loan repayment period is 18 months, with the grace period of five months. During the grace period, users are to pay the interest only, whereas the rest of the debt is to be paid in 13 monthly installments.
