Omsk has begun issuing anti-crisis guarantees to businesses affected by COVID-19

The deadline for making a decision on the guarantee will take only one day.

Entrepreneurs of Omsk and the region are offered to take advantage of a new support measure that is provided for businesses affected by the spread of a new infection. For these purposes, the Fund received a subsidy from the regional budget. Guarantees are issued by the Regional Guarantee Center, which is part of the Omsk Region Entrepreneurship Support Fund. 

"Understanding the complexity of the business situation, we decided to simplify the procedure for issuing guarantees for entrepreneurs. The deadline for reviewing a surety application has now been reduced from five days to one business day, provided that the applicant provides a complete set of documents. Also, the minimum remuneration rate for issuing guarantees is 0.5% per annum for the affected business," says the Manager of the Omsk Region Entrepreneurship Support Fund.Alexander Osminin. 

A preferential guarantee is issued in the amount of up to 1 million rubles for a period of up to 36 months, while the remuneration rate remains fixed for the entire term of the guarantee. As explained in the Regional Guarantee Center, in order to speed up the procedure, according to the decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 05/08/2020 No. 646, the need to check for overdue debts to the budget and extra-budgetary funds has been abolished. Representatives of small and medium-sized businesses included in the list of affected industries from the spread of COVID-19, both at the federal and regional levels, can receive guarantees on preferential terms. When applying to a bank for a loan, entrepreneurs are required to provide collateral for the loan. In this case, the regional guarantee Center acts as a guarantor for the loan amount (a guarantee is given for a maximum of 70% of the loan amount) and guarantees its payment. The borrower pays remuneration to the RSC for the guarantee (in this case, the remuneration rate is 0.5% per annum for the entire term).     

"For example, a guarantee in the amount of up to one million rubles will help support businesses in the fields of manufacturing, agriculture, catering, trade, healthcare, education and many others. To obtain a guarantee, you must contact the Fund's partners: SME Bank, Regional Microfinance Fund, Primsotsbank, AK BARS Bank, Rosselkhoznadzor, Sberbank, VTB Bank and ZENIT Bank," explained the Deputy Fund Manager, Head of the Regional Guarantee Center.Alexander Pyanov. 

You can consult about obtaining a preferential guarantee by phone: 8 (3812) 95-77-75 (extensions 25 or 27) on weekdays from 8:30 to 17:45, on Fridays from 8:30 to 16:30.
