ISLAMABAD: The Prime Minister Youth Affairs Programme has planned to launch ‘SME-lending facility’ under which subsidised business loans will be offered to young entrepreneurs for running their own businesses.

An official of the progamme said the loans will be offered in three categories, Radio Pakistan reported.

In the first category, up to 500,000 rupees lending facility will be offered to the borrowers and no guarantee will be required for this loan as only personal guarantee would be enough.

In the last two categories, the Prime Minister Youth Affairs Programme would provide subsidy to the borrowers by sharing half of their interest rate.
