What are the loan amount and collateral

Up to 80% financing

You can borrow up to 80% of your purchase or work cost estimate.

There is no maximum or minimum loan amount. We assess and approve your application based on:

  • Your business profile.
  • The value of the equipment you wish to buy or the cost estimate for the works you want to carry out.
  • Any other collateral.

With or without collateral

It is possible that we may request personal guarantees and/or collateral for the entire loan amount, according to our lending policy.

What’s the interest rate

Fixed or floating interest rate 

We determine the interest rate based on the amount, term and collateral. Choose:

  • Fixed or floating rate for the entire loan term.
  • Fixed for a specified period. After this time, a floating rate applies.

Law 128/1975 levy

According to Law 128/1975, all loans are subject to a levy that is paid to the Greek State.

For the investment plan business loan, the levy currently stands at 0.60%.

What are the loan term and repayment method

Depending on your investment

We determine the loan repayment term based on the type of investment and your planning. 

The total loan term cannot exceed the useful life of the asset, i.e. the time during which the property, merchandise or equipment you obtain:

  • Is used productively.
  • Performs for your business.
  • Is not inoperable.
  • Is not technologically obsolete.

With grace period

If you want, you can get a grace period after disbursement. We determine the length based on the time you need to complete your investment.

During the grace period, interest is charged every 3 or 6 months. You can choose either to pay it or have it capitalised. Meaning, the unpaid interest is added to the loan amount.

Repayment tailored to you 

You can adapt your loan payments according to your business needs and cash flow:

  • Equal instalments that pay interest and principal
  • Equal or unequal instalments that pay capital
  • Payment every 3 or 6 months

Early loan repayment

You can repay your loan earlier in full or in part at any time, without any penalties, if you have opted for a floating rate.

If you have opted for a fixed rate, you will pay a penalty.

What are the other fees

For the processing fee

For us to review your application, you pay a lump sum depending on the loan amount.

Mandatory property insurance

If you are offering collateral in the form of a mortgage lien on property, you must insure the property against fire and other risks, as appropriate, and bring an insurance policy in force to the branch.

 

Optional borrower insurance

You may also get the Business owner loan protection insurance plan we offer in cooperation with Generali as an insurance intermediary. This way, if something unexpected comes up, your outstanding loan balance and accrued interest will be paid on time.
