Households, Businesses Can Apply For N50bn COVID-19 Loans – CBN
CityNews Nigeria reports that the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has said that households and businesses affected by the COVID-19 can now apply for loans under its N50bn Targeted Credit Facility.
It said the stimulus package was to support households and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, adding that beneficiaries could access up to N25m.
On the concept of the TCF, the bank explained that the COVID-19 pandemic had led to unprecedented disruptions to global supply chains, sharp drop in global crude oil prices, turmoil in global stock and financial markets, among others.
It said these outcomes had had severe consequences on households’ livelihoods and business activities, resulting from drop in global demand, declined consumer confidence and slowdown in production.
