/ 11:40 AM November 12, 2024

JK Capital Finance, Inc. (JK Capital) entered into a credit guarantee agreement with the Philippine  Guarantee Corporation (PHILGUARANTEE) in late October of 2024. This partnership aims to channel credit to preferred economic sectors, ultimately fostering job creation, and supporting  MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises).

The agreement is a form of insurance for JK Capital, a pro-rata risk-sharing guarantee of losses on loans it extends to MSMEs — for up to P300M. “This is a milestone. With this partnership, we can  serve more clients and cover more industries by lowering our risk premium and consequently, the  rates we offer.” Jaskaran Singh President & CEO said. “Ultimately, this will benefit the local  economy and the small businesses we serve. We are happy and thankful for the government’s partnership,” he added. 

How Does This Benefit SMEs? 

Accessing reliable funding is a major hurdle for many SMEs in the Philippines, as they often face long processing times and complex documentation requirements. The ability to deploy funds quickly and efficiently can determine whether a business will merely survive or thrive in a competitive market. 

The latest data from the Philippine Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) reveals that MSMEs make up 99.5% of the country’s total businesses and employ over 5 million Filipinos. These enterprises not only drive employment but also contribute significantly to the economic vibrancy  of local communities, fueling development and nurturing an entrepreneurial spirit. 

JK Capital’s credit guarantee agreement marks a pivotal step for the businesses it serves. Securing  this guarantee was a rigorous process that highlights JK Capital’s commitment to supporting SMEs  and its expertise in managing risk. Let’s explore what this credit guarantee entails and how it stands  to benefit local businesses in the Philippines.

A credit guarantee is a financial safety net provided by a third party, such as a government agency. This minimizes the risk for lenders like JK Capital, encouraging them to extend more credit to businesses. With reduced risk, lenders can lower interest rates and make financing more accessible nationwide. 

For many SMEs, traditional financing can be overwhelming due to high interest rates, strict credit requirements, and limited collateral. These barriers often hinder growth and development.  

Through its credit guarantee agreement with PHILGUARANTEE, JK Capital is now better equipped to offer SMEs more favorable loan terms. The added security of this guarantee enables  JK Capital to provide lower interest rates, making loans more affordable for small businesses.

Additionally, this credit guarantee allows JK Capital to extend larger loan amounts, helping clients fund ambitious projects and expansions. SMEs with limited collateral or developing credit histories can now access loans more easily, opening doors to new growth opportunities.
