Low income professionals, farmers and marginalized traders hit by COVID-19 shutdown across the country will get subsidized loans from the Bangladesh Bank’s (BB) reviving refinancing scheme fund of Tk 3,000cr.
The Bangladesh Bank on Monday issued a guideline in this regard.
Under that package, COVID-19 affected people in three major categories will get the loan with a three-year repay deadline at 9 % interest rate.
A single client will receive loan from Tk 75,000 to Tk 3,00,000 while a five member team or joint businesses will get loan from Tk 100,000 to Tk 300000 maximum.
