The loans are repaid after the SME's customers pay invoices within 30-180 days. SoftBanQ conducts diligence on applicant profiles and financials to disburse

“India has 30 million
enterprises – only
7% have access to
financing – 93% are
either self financed
or not financed”

“90% of businesses have no
links with formal financial
institutions. Exists robust
demand for financial services
this demand currently being
served by informal sources.”
