TI Lending will address the varied challenges faced by SMEs in the country. Capital denial is one of the major hurdles that is preventing SMEs from taking the entrepreneurial plunge. TradeIndia through TI lending which is a 100% online solution envisions to become the first choice amongst SMEs for quick and convenient business loans and enable them to build a strong credit history to become eligible to take bigger loans from the banks.
“The idea behind introducing TradeIndia (TI) Lending is not just to offer SMEs the ease of doing business; it is majorly done to help them with much required financial assistance so they canpursue their growth strategies. India has approximately 63 million+ SMEs, accounting for 30% of the country’s GDP and generates 100 million+ jobs for both skilled and semi-skilled workforce. However, they have their own set of challenges, with ‘capital gap’ being the major of all. We see this service as a step forward in the direction of improving the competitiveness of SMEs,” says SandipChhettri, CEO, TradeIndia.
In the last five years, the credit gap in the country has increased. Small businesses which require quick access to working capital for their daily operations can have an impact on their earnings and profits in cases of any hindrances in attaining the same. However, other problems such as payments delay which further lead to reduced investments and growth may arise. Resulting in risk aversion in the minds of entrepreneurs. TI Lending aims to address such varied underlying problems.
