Provincial Government Partnering With CUs On Two-Year Pilot to Help Small Biz

ST. JOHN’S, Newfoundland–The provincial government of Newfoundland and Labrador has entered into a partnership with credit unions on a two-year pilot program to help small business.

The Small Business Loan Guarantee Pilot Program will provide loan guarantees for term loans issued by credit unions under their existing loan programs, VOCM reported. The province will issue guarantees of up to a total of $5 million dollars for the pilot.

Participating credit unions will provide the Department of Industry, Energy and Technology with activity reports on a quarterly basis, the report stated, noting commercial loans will be subject to standard audit and examination by the Credit Union Deposit Guarantee Corporation.
