HOW IT OPERATES
The loan is provided to you by the lender, who shares the risk of any default of payment with the Government. The lenders, any local bank or a credit union, makes the credit decisions, registers loans, deposit any administration fee and realize all securities in case of default in repayment of the CSBF loan. The lender according to his own loan eligibility approves a loan. Thus there are chances of not meeting any internal credit criteria leading the bank to reject the loan. Whereas, the government’s role is to design the program and spread awareness.
In case of any default, The government reviews and pays the lender’s claims and ensures compliance. The lender vests the rights to sell all the collateral assets. The government shall bear 85% of any outstanding amount left after the sale of assets and other properties, and the lender would claim a loss of the 15%.
