SME loan portfolio increased by 50%
Last year UKRGASBANK focused on lending to SMEs that suffered most from the pandemic and lockdown. In 2020, the volume of SME loans increased by 50% (UAH 2.5 billion) totaling UAH 7.7 billion. Of these 80% are investment loans. The bank currently has more than 71 000 of SME clients and is an absolute record holder by the number of awards in the "Leaders of SME financing" ranking, according to "Business" magazine.
Such a significant increase in the portfolio was due to the bank's active participation in the state program "Affordable Loans 5-7-9%", as well as other business lending programs. Last year UKRGASBANK also launched the program to support Ukrainian exporters and unsecured loans for energy efficiency.
