The scheme provides assurance to the lenders that in case of default, a guarantee cover will be provided by the trust in the ratio of 50/75/80/85 percent of the amount so given. It is an initiative which allows lending institutions to provide loans to small and micro enterprises without the availability of collateral or security.
