The purpose of this
project is to create a fund that would help Diaspora Hellenes, who
would normally not have access to funds, upgrade their businesses
or trade skills or enable them to go into new products or markets.
Through this fund, administered
by the Commercial Bank of Greece/Tbilisi Branch, very low interest
loans would be offered to Hellenes who submit an acceptable business
plan with their application. Eligibility criteria are determined
by Commercial Bank.
The rotating fund would be capitalized with
$240,000, and loans would be given with an interest of about one
third of the prevailing interest rates. Repayment of loans allows
extending credit to additional beneficiaries.
